Pictures of the Infini LCA

When I get a camera, I will post pictures, but can anyone post pictures of the Infini front lower control arms. The front end I got has the Infini Shocks so I was wondering if I got the whole front end from one. The center bore is close to 80mm on the hub and the ball joint isn't "detachable" and replaceable like most fc's I've seen. The ball joint is pressed into the arm itself.
Its not OMG I have to know. Its just random curiosity.
Thank you.

pretty sure they are the same as all other fc's...the s5's didnt have detachable ball joints. you should be able to tell by the paint code, bronze windshield or the interior (if it came with any interior)

That is interesting. Even the FD's were only 67mm or so. FC's are 59.6.

^^^Yeah, that's the big issue when it comes to spacers, etc. Its almost exactly 80mm, we didn't have a micrometer though.
Here's the pictures.



If you can see, it looks machined also but as you can tell the GM Late Model ARP studs work so the knurl and everything is right...
Custom maybe?

That's where the brake disc should sit AFAIK.

are one of the other stepped heights 59 or 67?

Yeah, I asked a friend about it when I first got it, he started going on and on about how this might be really rare and ****. Well I got all caught up in his excitement and overlooked the really ******* obvious point that the brake sits on that.... Maaaaaaaaaaajor fail on my part. I apologize for wasting bandwidth, haha.

While you have it availible, can you measure the height of that part (the 80mm step) for me?
