INDEPENDENT FRONT SUSPENSION SYSTEMS
Available for all common passenger vehicles 1923-1998 from Superformance
The suspension in a vehicle separates the vehicle occupants from the ground and is paramount for safety.
The suspension absorbs the irregularities on the road surface, so Superformance explains the better the suspension, the better the ride for the occupants.
It states an Independent Front Suspension, commonly called an IFS, offers many key benefits over earlier front suspension designs.
In older designs when one wheel hits a bump, it affects both wheels. This compromises the quality of the ride and can cause traction loss, which is exaggerated at higher speeds. In other words, vehicle stability is affected by design.
With an IFS, each wheel moves independent of the other, which reduces the amount of traction loss and greatly improves the quality of the ride.
An IFS typically has lower unsprung weight than earlier designs.
Superformance says it engineers and manufactures quality IFS (Independent Front Suspension) systems for classic vehicles to improve handling, ride quality, and safety.
Superformance further explains that its IFS kits are custom engineered and fabricated “past the highest industry standard” to transform your vehicle’s old, outdated, and poorly designed front suspension into that of a modern performance vehicle.
A quality IFS like the Superformance designed and manufactured units requires considerable research and development of the engineering mechanisms at play in the movement of suspension to obtain the highest performance and ride quality.
Caster, Camber and Anti Dive are all factored in at the time of manufacture, with Superformance stating its premium shim adjustable control arm shafts means any competent Wheel Align shop understands how to set it up.
Superformance can both supply and/or install its IFS kits into your vehicle.
Superformance also sells imported IFS kits ex-USA from well-known manufacturers such as Art Morrison, Heidts, Kugel Components, Scott’s Hotrod, Total Cost Involved, and others.
