Re: travel limiting front suspension

I think you need some track testing to see 'IF' you need limiting or not. On a nose heavy vehicle you want as much pitch rotation as you can get. So like Shane is saying controlling how fast it rotates is tuning to traction.

On a strut chassis we use a limiter just to keep the suspension from 'bottoming out' in the strut. With a strut running anywhere from $300 to $900 side you don't want to beat it up with no ' suspension stop' . Then having the limiter,,, it's one more tuning tool to get lost in.
