Absorbers / Suspension

I sent my VX for auto foaming this morning. Auto foaming is to apply foam into the hollow sections of the cars body & chassis members. It helps a lot on my VX handling also reduce noise and bumpy ride feeling.

interesting, never heard of it. Looks like it's more for soundproofing rather than suspension damping /reduction. How would it be strong/stout enough to actually damp the suspension/vibration/movement of the 4,100 lb truck?

Sound dampening, yes. Suspension changes, no.

Before i foam my VX,I was also thought that foaming is only for sound dampening. However, when I reached the foaming workshop, saw one continental car (mercedes c class year 2012) was prepare for foaming as well.
The owner said it was his second Mercedes sent for foaming, the first one done a month ago, and this was for his wife.
I was told by him foaming actually improve car handling. Imagine a hollow bar compare to a filled bar, which is more rigid? The rigidity actually affecting the shaking condition.
After trying on my foamed VX, I would said.....I agree, foamed car is having better handling.
I just share my experience for reference....

the Mercedes is a unibody construction, and i could see foam injection possible improving body rigidity in that and changing handling characteristics. the vx is a full frame truck and injecting foam into the body would do nothing for the handling as the body and frame of vehicle are separate unlike unibody were the body is the frame.. i am sorry but i would have to strong disagree with you on your claims for the vx
