The relays are a good deal...no need to spend a bunch of money...I've had and seen similar setups work as expected... Good Stuff Tony 🏁 Those kind of overlooked touches make a difference
Are the poly bump stops with the aluminum mounting the same height as the OEM bumps stops? Poly bump stops just don't make sense, with lowering the car these are just going to add to a rougher ride if the poly bump stops come into contact with the frame. Poly everywhere is not the way to go for ride quality and performance.
Yes they are the same height. But do you realize the rubber bump stops are very stiff as well and the other bump stops are a plastic material. This is no rougher then before. Plus even with a lowered car, if your suspension is set correctly you shouldn't be making contact with the bump stop very often at all. Unless your literally lowering the car just to be low. In that case you probably won't have bump stops at all
@@TonyTheTechnicianI agree that a lot of thought has to be had when it comes to setting up the suspension whether it be for the drag strip or a road course, the bump stops are there for more extreme articulation of the suspension, they're not only for protection they are also a tuning devise. If the car still has the original bump stops, as most these cars do, the OEM pieces are more than likely to be just as stiff as poly but in original form the factory bump stops aren't as hard as the poly replacements. A Shore scale is a durometer rating between 0-100, A new factory bump stop rubber can have a Shore scale rating of around 60 where poly pieces can be a rating of 80 or above, these are just general numbers as I don't have the exact Shore scale numbers for either. In my opinion, we can agree to disagree, poly isn't always the best option and poly as a bump stop is not the way to go. Keep up the good work, I appreciate the content you put out.
@banditt1972 ohh absolutely agreed and shouldn't be used everywhere. Especially if looking for ride comfort. As far as the bumps stops go though I haven't had any issues. But ya road courses and ride comfort I definitely wouldn't suggest them. Thank you.
I'm going to go back and watch this build. It's these small things to me that makes a huge difference in a build.
Thank you I appreciate and I completely agree!!!

I thought those relays would be more expensive than that
Ya I was pretty surprised and they had great reviews. So gave them a shot and it's worked perfectly so far.
