[DML] Re: Front Suspension Compliance

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Those are custom recall brackets. The factory recall brackets transfer upward swaybar forces from a flat piece of 16 gauge low carbon steel (more genius Lotus engineering) to one vertical piece of 16 gauge low carbon steel. My brackets accomplish the same thing, albeit to *TWO* vertical pieces of 16 gauge low carbon steel -- and to a 1/8" thick aluminum I beam (the so called "Heath Robinson" modification that actually makes my crumple extension significantly stronger in the vertical plane than a stock vehicle -- another reason my car handles so well).
