Camber compensator Triumph Vitesse

[bzrse7en]

Hi
I want to fit a camber compensator to the swing axle suspension on a Triumph Vitesse / Herald.
I want to know it it will require cert?
It is basicly an additional transverse leaf spring added under the diff to stop jacking.
They were available years ago, but now, I'd need to fab one up.
It will require a couple of brackets made from 3mm plate which require welding and then bolted onto the rear uprights - if that makes sense.

Hi, yes this will require cert as it is not a modification that is listed in the threshold as never requiring certification.

Here is the suspension threshold here. vehicleinspection.nzta.govt.nz/virms/in-service-wof-and-cof/general/steering-and-suspension/steering-and-suspension-systems#tab2
