Default Re: Wheel shimmy

The reason changing the upper ball joints to the longer type helps bump steer is because it reduces camber change. Combine that with a bump steer kit and you'll solve the problem as much as you can without major modifications. When we put longer ball joints on the orange car, then added the Santhuff shocks, it calmed things down a ton. There is a video from the coverage of the GatorNationals a few years ago that shows the car before we made the changes, in slow motion. The car looks nothing like that now, even coming down from a wheelie bar bending moon shot.
