FMJ spindles > POLL
I do not own (and will not own) any vehicle with altered suspension geometry.
Read the article. Makes no difference. I have insinuated nothing.
Makes no difference?
The article clearly shows that the FMJ spindles are perfectly safe, and possibly have BETTER geometry than the original spindles did. Especially for cars that use larger, more modern tires and tread compounds.
Suspension design and geometry is
always a trade off. In the case of the FMJ spindles, you trade a ridiculously slight increase in toe change for a more significant increase in negative camber gain. Simply put, thats a good trade. If you don't understand that, then you simply don't understand how suspension works.
The factory designed the suspension on these cars for use with rock hard, rail skinny, bias ply tires. It set the alignment specifications for those tires. It sized the torsion bars for those tires and their incredible lack of traction. It based its brakes on those tires' lack of traction. So the only question is, do you run bias ply tires?
If the answer is NO, and you still use the factory geometry, then you have in fact significantly altered the handling characteristics of your car beyond the factory specifications.
