ive been drifting on stock knuckles this whole time, all I had were weiner 7mm tierod spacers with weiner stock tierods.

so Im super excited about getting moar angle lol

 

is this enough?

 

you should probably learn how to drive first, too. L O L....

 

What about drawing some 3D sketches and get em milled? Does anyone know the limit of distance from pivot hole to center of the knuckle?
I got some short ones, but i got more to goo =)

 

Dk, you crazy azn bastard.

Did you bother to use a jig? Lol.

Ghetto fab!!!!!!

 

Got these from Scott... great product!

just need tie rods now.

 

i have those too. i just cut my tie rods but i have the mazdatrix **** too.

cut almost 1" off the stock tie rods

 

Maybe its just the pictures but it looks like you're increasing you're ackerman angle with those new holes?

 

It's just the awkward pic

 

That way it definatly isnt eny less ackerman angle. Mine are cut, and rewelded in place with little to none clearance from the brake disc. We want no ackerman angle, right? =)

 

anybody run without the brake disc shield? is it safe without the shield? It will definitely give clearance..

Yeah mine are gone... just tear them out... like 4 or 5 10mm bolts on the back of them.

 

mine came right off maybe you missed a bolt? there should be no cutting at all.

 

Opposite ackerman would be ideal.

 

Wut?

 

yeah my brake shield comes off easy too..damnn Icant wait to get the heimjoints so Ican use my knuckles.. Even at adams I would be able to squeeze more angle if I had the knuckles in .. as I was hitting full lock many times, I wanted more steering angle !! would look so buckwild connecting with mad angle

 

its in... The 18x9.5 -5 wheel is hitting the lca, so its not even full lock yet, and its probably still toed in abit, I need a bigger front spacer and alignment..

 

 

okay, so I finished up installing em yesterday, and drove 74 miles on the freeway.. at first I was shitting bricks and only going 60 mph, cuz Im afraid of my spindles welds failing, but after a while I got over it and I guess Its fine haha, the 60 fwy in LA was bumpy as hell, and damn, IM loving my u turns and steering input.. It feels like a r/c car with high speed servo now.. well heres a small clip after I first installed em, and just testing em... the rim is hitting the LCA.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jM0Lg8cE6sA

Il be testing out the spindles tmrw at Inland drift in lake perris Riverside... Lets throw this sucka in reverse angle haha

 

this

 

its over now guys.

I got super itchy today and drifted a few turns on some streets omg, my feels like a 240 now. I never even hit full lock and I was already drifting more angle than I did at the track, I can stay on the gas way longer now.. It feels extremely easy to drive... if you see this angle in person you will **** bricks.

 

Techtrix did the exact same thing, I remember at Balcony he was telling me about it, and Ive seen him get reall buck wild angle.. But yeah this is a good way to avoid using huge 50mm spacers up front. at my full lock my BRAKE CALIPER is almost hitting the LCA, my rim is still hitting the lca... yet Ims till using the stock oem tierods..You should be getting more angle than me with your setup.. I may do this mod later, but I just dont see why I need even more angle.. but yeah keep us updated !!!

 

So wouldn't these infact give you a shitload more negative camber without even touching prior camber settings?

****. I keep throwing usuable **** in the trash. Tossed a set of lower ball joints away. Nothing was wrong with them, just bad boots. Easy replacements from energy suspension.....

So you wouldn't need longer tie rods with these? It does seem impossible to **** up, unless you can't weld and dont believe in using clamps.

Let us know how this goes for you! Reverting back to oe style kuckles?

 

That sounds like some BS if I've ever heard it.

 

Lets keep this on topic. How about we let the man's work speak for itself before raising the bs flag.
