Front Lower Wishbone Clunk

Hi Someday
Those little rubber Shock Absorber Bushes have a really dramatic effect on Body Roll, so worth experimenting until you get the handling you like
My MOT Tester who missed these because they had rotted away, actually did me a favour because as I wanted to use the Car and got fed up with the banging sound that seemed to be coming from underneath the floor, I decided to make my own
So I Cut some out of a piece of Scrap Rubber (of the right thickness) and I couldn't believe the difference that they made
But the ideal combination for me, is rubber ones under the Wing/Fender and the Top ones cut from a Nylon Chopping Board
The difference was incredible and now She Corners as flat as a Pancake!

Huh.
Okay, I would love to know the thought processes behind you deciding to use a chopping board to absorb shocks. Because they're good at absorbing blows from knives? Did you experiment with a range of weird and wonderful materials?
"Hmm. Dry toast doesn't work very well, even with grilled cheese. How about used chewing gum?"
