I've been knee deep doing a body lift so here's some quick notes.
- Washers were a quick and dirty way to test a concept. They are large enough cover the witness marks of contact so that's what I went with. It's wet my appetite to chase more. @PerryParts , definitely interested and I'll reach out.
- Adding compliance in this manner is distinct from extending links or repositioning links. Though it could be integrated and compounded with those strategies. The current LC200 sway bar relocation for clearance can change the motion ratio of the sway bar end link, which itself changes the effective spring rate of KDSS. Unless relocating the way to the outside of the LCA, which potentially restores some of the motion ratio?
- Great post @daneo ! Always great to have objective references and see what's going on with other platforms to inform what could be done with the LC.
- I don't believe this is so much plumbing bandwidth, as it is an architectural limitation of the KDSS system. Regardless, loosing up the system (if desired) could have performance benefits if high speed running is a priority and I'm excited where this could go.
