Im still on the original kingpins John, but the brake reaction bars made a big difference to the car. On bumpy roads it stopped the chassis shake at the front which meant I now dont have to slow down and like you say the front end crashing on potholes is much reduced. I really should have fitted brake reaction bars before fitting adjustable shocks!
I also now have a Sifab Panhard rod fitted by Matty at Lifes which improved the handling and steering feel at a reasonable cost.
I was thinking of getting the Sifab Panhard rod fitted at the same time, but decided that I wanted to understand the relative changes to the car in stages of hopefully noted improvement. There is lots of 'sage' advice on here on suggested improvements, I just wanted to pick my own way through it all.........some are minor improvements, others can give a step change and I wanted to try and understand that for myself. It's now clear to me that brake reaction bars (all other things being equal) are a step change for the front end and chassis ride for a very small outlay.
I hadn't checked the tyre pressures since I got them replaced in September (even though I told the fitters it was 22psi and their boss has a Morgan) Matt noted they were at 30psi which he lowered to 22psi. I actually found the car felt more planted at the back with the higher pressures....now this may be a subjective feel and with the tightened front end its now showing the back end up...I'll wait till I get the Panhard rod done and then (if necessary) start playing with tyre pressures.
