BMR Thanksgiving Sale - 15% OFF most BMR Suspension products
BMR would like to say thank you to all of our customers on this all-American holiday by having a 15% OFF Thanksgiving Sale on most BMR products from now until midnight on Cyber Monday. Viking shock and strut kits will also receive 10%...
Then you have even stronger. Something like this would be the absolute 100% best FLCA on earth for the S197.
Would people pay $1000 for them? Likely not.
The issue we face with the S197 FLCA design is the lack of triangulation.
For example, we can make VERY VERY strong arms. However, those very very strong arms will not clear most 9" or wider wheels. Counterproductive, unfortunately.
Check this out. Strong as an ox, yet would need 8" wide...
Thanks Dave.
Here is a Gen2 A-Arm with a ton of abuse that we have in for analysis. In the meantime, what we are doing is, we will be updating our "adjustable" front bearing arms (like pictured) with some larger additional gusseting (the white paper), simply because more and more people have...
Figured I would chime in.
The last issue that I have been made aware of with our tubular FLCA was when Steve Poe broke one. He had been running our Gen1 design for a while and developed some cracks, so I told him we would make some changes to a set and send them his way. Well, one of those...
Many of you know the car. Anthony took the car to the track last night and myself and the tuner (Ken Bjonnes) provided full track support in an effort to try and break into the 8.1XX range.
The ET goal was not met, but he did run a string of 8.20s! With the best / last two passes being...
What you are looking for, is what we have in our SP009 Performance Spring Kit.
That spring kit provides a slight increase in wheel rate without "needing" a "high end" damper...has set records at the drag strip, and has also been used by many many people in road course and autocross applications...
To simplify and help explain what I was saying about narrow mounted bars and wheel rates etc. I will post a pic to demonstrate.
Pic #1 is a BMR unique drag style ARB design. This bar is for drag racing and provides SERIOUS roll control. This is the most effective drag bar we offer.
Pic #2 is...
Any of the BMR bars that start with "XSB" will not be what you are looking for.
I think we offer more designs than anyone else, in terms of rear anti-sway/roll bars for the S197 platform, and since you stated "handling" I will tell you that all of the designs on the market can/will do their...
I do not have the engineering or "scientific" data to back up my thoughts on this.
But, I have always had a very hard time accepting that the OE braces do much of anything.
1: They are not very strong.
2: They are bolted on via weak hardware.
3: Where they attach to, the sump/tire well is a...
You "could" do the BMR SP012 rear srpings....with the CAB005 LCA Brackets and of course the Viking B226 shocks to compliment as well.
But, I would try the first combo I mentioned above first.
