fpv_ute Member 67 Member For: 14y 26d Gender: Male Location: collaroy Posted 28/05/12 01:57 PM Share Posted 28/05/12 01:57 PM I had a 20mm rear sway bar added in the rear and this pretty much stopped all axle tramp, that's with reset leafs too not new lowered leafs Where did you get the sway bar from? I get major axle tramp even before I started modding mine, My center bearing went after 5000ks on a brand new f6 manual ute and ford didnt want a thing to do with it.

UEB302 Member 27 Member For: 12y 7m 8d Posted 18/06/12 09:59 AM Share Posted 18/06/12 09:59 AM Yeah my stock turbo ute does it from new also,its done less than 1000km and when you accelerate in first gear it gets axle tramp,also in the wet when it loses traction.Id be interested to find out a warranty safe fix that will stop the tramp.I dont thrash it by any means being new but id like to be able to accelerate without the tyres bouncing through the wellbody and enjoy the 270 kw ford gave my ute.

Not a fan of the Caltracks purely because it may make the ride pretty harsh in the car. Going an alternate option with new shocks/saddles/bushes. If I can book in with Pat shortly I should have a firmer idea of what will and wont fix this issue. Hoping this solution fixes it. Will post back once I know where its at.Have recently gone with superpro bushes in the saddles, rear shackles and front eyes and can say that it did not do much for the tramp. Still does it just as bad as before. Considering doing what 4.0T did and going with whiteline sway bars in the rear as not many utes have these but from his experience it seemed to cure all the tramp that his ute had. Will also eventually do the shocks, but have heard that this won't make much difference to the tramp issue. If all else fails I will resort to the Mal Wood Tramp Kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made mine fairly cheaply and can launch it, full noise on concrete with out one bit of tramp. Mcdonalds brothers also do a set $650. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
