Re: Steering Damper
Hello,
I have read many that say the steering damping simply hides other problems that should be fixed. While I do believe there is truth to this, I nevertheless find the steering damper useful - mainly because I have to drive on freeways with grooved pavement. Without the steering damper, the unavoidable irregularity of the pavement grooving relative to the driving direction creates nerve-wracking erratic steering behaviour. I do my best to regularly ensure all steering connections (kingpins, drag-link, tie-rod, steering box) joints are tight, but will not remove the steering damper because of how the car would otherwise drive on that grooved pavement.
Safe driving, Andrew
