What is the difference between the Super Strut suspension on the SS-III and the MacPherson on my GT. Which one is better and can they be swapped??

Yes, it would need to be aligned. The odds of swapping out your whole suspension and putting another one in its place and somehow hitting upon perfect alignment upon assembly is pretty slim.
Well, yes and no. The camber setting will always remain constant; however, the toe settings may need to be changed, and the caster settings might as well. In fact (and I don't know this to be true) it is possible that while the camber settings remain static, the toe and/or caster may change under load. My point was simply that it was designed for use in WRC, and they abandoned it. Seems to me like its not something I want on my car. Sounds like it was a good theory that didn't work in practice. |
