Suspension (damper mounting) question
I'm thinking about eliminating the bushings at the upper mounts for my front coilovers. I'd go with a hard mount rod-end and let the damper do all the work instead of relegating some of it to the bushings. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Jay

I think you won't like it.
That little bushing takes up a lot of road abuse.
It will handle more precisely, but the vibrations could be insane... that bushing isn't taking much away from the shock, but it is absorbing the minor undulations and such.
