Why is the rear beam mounting kit only recommended for two wheel drive cars?

0

The rear wheel steering effect is most noticeable on two wheel drive cars, when accelerating hard, the car will steer one way, (usually to the right) and then on deceleration, the car steers in the opposite direction. The rear beam mounting bushes are also more prone to wear on two wheel drive cars due to the loading put on them during acceleration. If the rear beam mounting bushes are worn excessively, to the point of collapse, the rear suspension will run directly onto the harder mounting kit and transmit high levels of road noise at all times. If this is the case, then we would recommend the fitment of replacement urethane rear beam bushes.
