<div dir="ltr">I am currently making a new set of anti-tramp bars. I'm replacing the stock front spring mount with a modified one that both raises the spring eye point (and lowers the ride height but also extends directly downwards to become the mounting point for the anti-tramp bar. This removes the bracket on a bracket approach of the existing anti-tramp bar while also allowing me to create a bar(s) which has a larger bush than the regular kit has. The bar will also end up being a bit longer than the original but that's also a better thing. I'm hoping the new bar and bracket integral to the spring hanger will weigh less than the old design.<div><br></div><div>Regards</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Daniel</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Sun, Nov 11, 2018 at 1:38 AM <a href="mailto:crusaderchuck55@aol.com">crusaderchuck55@aol.com</a> via Spridgets <<a href="mailto:spridgets@autox.team.net">spridgets@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

The stock rubber straps are too long with a lowered suspension. Of you are using a coil over rear set up I figure your shock limits the drop. </p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">On certain hillclimbs we encounter sudden course elevation changes which result in cars getting partially to completely airborne. I'm leaning towards making clamped cable type travel limiting devices for the Midget. </p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Anyone consider tackling this and if so, text or a simple picture would be more than welcome.</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Thank you!</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Chuck</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">I'm also leaning towards anti-tramp bars to link the area under the front spring mount to the axle to spring mount to controll the springs under hard braking or acceleration. Hillclimbs around here require using the 5.2 ( think that's the correct number for the postal van ratio?) which can really torque the rear springs on a hard start line launch.</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">C.</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br></p><div id="m_8363042443745222061SignatureBox" dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Sent from my LG Mobile</div></div>
