Thanks, Mark | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 | Canisters?? Do you have a picture of what your asking about?

The idea behind it is the axle vibrates at a certain freequency, the dappeners vibrate at the same freequency, but opposite the axle, canceling all vibrations out and making for a smoother ride.
