i keep seeing these advertised on ebay. i thought the bump steer was to do with the top arm angle and wheel offset? (amongst other things)

so simple question do they work?
it seems its a big claim to match the big price tag

Speeding is like masturbating, everyone does it, but not all of us film it and put it on the internet

without getting one in my hand and having a measure so see if the drop hasa been altered, i'm going to guess that they are dimentionally the same as standard and there for do what they say on the tin, as a standard mini setup[ front sus pick up point not moved] does not suffer any degree of bump steer in my experience,

having said all thaT MIGLIAS HAVE A VERY SMALL AMOUNT OF TRAVEL SO BUMP STEER WOULD BE MINIMISED ANYWAY, AND IF YOU EVER PUT THEM ON A RALLY CAR YOU'D SOON KNOW IF THEY WORKED OR NOT, opps caps,sorry,

there are cheaper ways to sort out your bump steer,

dont confuse bump steer with torque steer folks

I measured the bump steer on my mini once, as Carl says, fook all.

It didn't stop some idiots on MF trying to tell me that they had loads and that bigger offset wheels increase it.

Bumpsteer, like lag, is a much misunderstood term.

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination,
talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol
