i need to pick up some adjustable rear lateral links. the ones that control Toe adjustment on FC's.
what are some good links, and then what are some cheap ones?
links please. pretty sure this will help alot of people wondering also.

go geek out at AWRRacing.com

Ya ive looked at those before. So does this eliminate the need for the accentric bolts that adjust rear toe slightly.

AWR stuff seems pretty damn good.

davedge's whole rear end is AWR. that **** is sexy. look up his username and threads started. he has to have some **** somewhere

that dude needs a built thread. i saw some of it on ZT awhile back

ya, davedge welded a bunch of his subframe and modified it a little too. I think he spent like $1500 just on his rear suspension, guy is baller status.

and he did that like 5-6 years ago when he was still running near stock engine setup. nice to see that stuff can handle what hes doing now too

legit parts. i like the solid subframe bushing kit alot.
probably going to order those, and the stainless brake line kit.

the hardlines at the caliper always crack super easy and for $100 it seems worthwhile to swap them all.

are you talking about the system that changes rear toe slightly under cornering load? if so, that is the Dynamic Tracking Suspension System (dtss) and the bushings for those are inside where the front of the subframe bolts to the chassis. if that's not what you mean, I never said anything.

he's referring to the eccentric "alignment" bolts that you use on a factory car to give an alignment.

i honestly don't think you switch them to anything else. don't quote me as i don't know, but i dont see why' you'd remove them.
someone else would know more.

Not mine, RX7V8Builder on norotors.com. Hope he doesn't mind me sharing. Modified stock, looks awesome/affordable.

I did the same

^ nice ideas guys. cheap and functional. I might do this since my coilovers will be going in and I need to replace rear subframe bushings anyway. a lo

Do you guys think I could make my own camber link(s) a similar way? I'd have to buy some type of ends but I think it could be done cheap and work well but I don't know if camber links on a low car have a lot of stress on them that might make this a possibly dangerous mod to do.

yea thats what im talking about. im not asking if they can be removed, im asking if you purchase the adjustable trailing arms if thats all you need to adjust the rear toe and the toe essentric bolt can jsut be there hanging out.

driftfcbuckey

iTrader: (8)

pretty sure you'd just adjust the toe eccentric bolt to zero before aligning the arms? idk.
i just drive...

on a side note referring to the custom stock ones, that is a really easy idea. the parts to make custom rear toe links are only $100 US retail, so i may just make my own (why i was asking for multiple threads)
the stock ones tend to bend easily, and i'm over swapping LCA's cause they bend super easy. make custom ones is the way to go! thanks for the photos.

JebusFC

If you dont weld the eccentric bolt its likely to slip over time, that was my motivation to make the adjustable arms and weld the eccentric in place.

slidinsilly

word so looks like i still gotta get that eccentric bolt free somehow. really need an allignment but def need somemore angle and less tow first

RAD! thanks for the info!

i was thinking it would, but i know i've never seen a replacement bolt to delete it. ive never messed with it so i didnt know much.

As for the camber links I use the middle one to do most of the adjustment then the outside individual links for fine tuning. The AWR and mazdaspeed stuff is nice.

Point is is that is you just cut and weld your going to have no adjustably for different track conditions ect...

Avoid MMR -good price -but they took forever with ZERO communication -in fact I had to do a dispute with paypal for the camber links.

driftfcbuckey

iTrader: (8)

where can i find the mazdaspeed stuff at?
i know people get it, but it's like mystery **** to me. i havent searched for it for awhile but when i did i couldn't find any support.

I have some of tony's links. For racing they are fine, kinda small rod ends and bolts though. I have most of AWR FC stuff, and I really like them. I really like the individual camber adj.

Any sideways excursion off track into dirt will bend the bolts and/or rod ends. That happened to me. Plus, you have to drill the opening to accept a non tapered heim.

Battleversion.com is Alex Phieffers own line. When I flipped my FC at HorseThief on Halloween he was there and showed me his rod ends and bolts. MUCH beefier, and they come with tapered pieces to bolt right in.

He also has adj main camber rod for rear subframe. With my AWR individual ends, I max out rear camber and still not at the .5 I need to be at. It is around 1.2-5.

Alex is a So Cal local person. he is currently out of the FC main camber rod, but he shpuld have the toe links. He should have everything by the 10th of Feb though. He is going to call me when they are ready.

well I was talking more along the lines of making my own adjustable camber links, they would just be threaded. I should probably just buy some though, I'm no fabricating genius so they might not turn out strong enough.

USDRFTR- let me know how that battleversion rear camber rod works out. very interested in the results.

i always bend them easily like you said with any dirt drop/soft impact into tires or anything...
i'll hit up alex and see whats up.
