For some reason I saw the address this time. Nashua's 15 minutes from here. I need to put this on my to-do list when I start working on my chassis.
Regarding 1G lateral chassis loads on the suspension mountings, that is no different then a 1G turn as far as the suspension is concerned. Where do you think the loadings go when you take a turn? Through the suspension mounts.

John,
Agree on the loading. As well, the loading on this is smooth and at times the loads we put on the car are not so gentle! Pls let us know what you find out from your visit to the factory! Joe

Yes, this tilting thing is as old as the street, it's being demo-ed over here in all the classic car-shows in some circus-style by a German man-woman team, in fact I dug up the brochure and their website is www.liqui-technik.com .
The price in Belgium is $750 (taxes included). All you need is an electrical drill as motive force. FYG, their brochure clearly states "All oils, such as motor oil, transmission oil, brake oil, cooling liquid and window washer liquid remain in their recipients. YOU ONLY NEED TO REMOVE THE BATTERY.

Lee,
It arrived a couple of weeks ago and I have played with it a bit but have been working and out of town lately. May try to "tilt" the Jag this weekend as a trial. If I do will let you guys know as I cannot wait to see how it works! Joe

Havent driven with me lately have you !
 I have yet to take a turn that'll put 1G on the car for any more than several seconds Know what you mean and that is a valid point. I am not going to leave the car at a 90 degree angle to the floor for days but return it to at least close to horizontal after working on it. See what happens... Joe
