where are bushing found on a chassis? they are there to connect moving pieces much like that found in the cars suspension. dont you think its a little strange for you to recommend a strut tower bar when you say cars can be too stiff? i cant refute give being necessary but i can tell you that it certainly is not desired. the ride characteristics should be coming from the suspension, not the chassis. i think you are confusing the two.

'veFrom WIKI...

In the case of vehicles, the term chassis means the frame plus the "running gear" like engine, transmission, driveshaft, differential, and suspension.

It seems "someone" is confused about what a chassis is. At any rate isn't that the point of a forum, to educate and share?

I speak purely from my own tuning data. Your statement places words I've not uttered. Don't read into it. I'd read / study my comments again, good sir.

okay well when you seemingly excluded spring rates from chassis which you say includes suspension you lost me considering how that makes no sense otherwise. besides, wiki is not really a viable source. i feel its more common than not to consider the frame and the chassis interchangeable terms.

^^I'll second that about frame and chassis being interchangeable.
