    Default Vote for a Suspension & Brakes Forum

    Motion for there to be a "Suspension & Brakes" forum and a separate "Wheels & Tires" forum instead of the current "WHEELS/BRAKES/TIRES" and throwing suspension threads wherever it happens to land since it's not defined where to put them, normally in here or in General Tech lost with light bulb questions to clutch issues or whatever the screw up of the day is.

    I made a suggestion thread but they always seem to go unnoticed!
    Request to add Suspension to a forum title.

    For what it's worth, I vote "yay." This isn't a democracy though.

    ...but it's cluster when suspension threads are in more than one forum because it's not defined where to even put them.

    Springs, coil-overs, camber kits, sway bars, alignments to wheels bearings, hubs, rotors, calipers, spacers, etc. should all be together.

    There are so many threads regarding tires and wheels they swallow up the more technical suspension threads, those of which should probably be in the general tech forum anyways.

    Then in the general tech forum there is literally 8,800 threads from sunroofs leaking to valve lash issues to standalone tuning to emissions to automatic/manual conversions to alarms to HID ballasts to bodywork to head studs to clutches to octane boosters to polishing carbon fiber to broken gloves boxes to fuel pumps to powder coating to brakes lights not working etc etc etc. Nearly 9,000 threads! I say separate the suspension related threads from that mess as well as anything regarding washing/detailing. The rest can remain a cluster in general tech.

    As much as i am a suspension freak - I'm with Vteckidd on this one.

    Although with a slightly different take -

    for this being a CAR related site, there are way too many dang forums for everything not pertaining to cars.
