Steering angle now!!!
 
Where can I get knuckles and extended ball joints for my car like now? Abercrombie is all backed up I geuss and pbms angle stuff is out of stock. I don't want to have to wait till like August to have steering angle!

I modified my own knuckles and balljoints. It's not that hard, but there's certain points of geometry you have to keep in mind and a good welder is extremely important.

I'm just starting to learn how to fab and weld stuff. I'm prity good but I don't think I'm ready to mod knuckles and ball joints yet. I just need some more angle and wider wheel base like ASAP! And Abercrombie said I might not even get my ball joints I ordered until August. Who else does knuckles and ball joints for FCs?

i could do a set for you

This might be a silly question, but ive seen some that look like they move the ball joint mounting hole down. Whats the point of that?

Some one told my about FC knuckles and ball joints on tealsuspention.com. Anyone here ever heard of them?

ComicArtist 06-08-14 01:53 PM

Teal's knuckles are cool, but they come with s13 tie rod ends which aren't long enough unless you have rack spacers or longer inners. I just put a set on my buddy's FC, quality product but he's going to need either rack spacers, longer inners, or Abercrombie tie rod ends.

My biggest issue is that Teals website advertises it as a bolt on kit, when you actually need more stuff. It's a great knuckle for the price though.

We'll I already have Abercrombie tie rod ends and spacers. So I just need the knuckles and ball joints. Do u know how long the ball joints r extended and how much angle I can get out of teal knuckles?

His balljoints are extended 1". When I did mine I went ahead and did an inch and a half and was happy with it. I don't know how many degrees it gets but there's no reason you should need more than 65. If you actually need more than that you're doing something wrong
