Mmmmm Tasty Teaser!

This should eliminate that nasty bumpsteer, steering lock, and wussy drift angle.

no release date, we have to test them. There is a bit of an issue trying to tighten the bolt in the space provided.

Parts Shop MAX super angle steering knuckle project is a success!

We made some changes to improve the part.
We widened the space on one side to put a wrench in it and we still opted to cut down the 19mm wrench to get the bolt tightened but who cares about the appearance of our 19mm wrench...
We cut off the factory knuckle bump stop and straightened out the curved section of our part.
We also needed to make a custom bumpstop on the lower arm.
Here are pics of the finished part and installation.
I am really excited about this part, I think this is the most important part for drifting since diffs and coilovers.
Initial tests are flawless.
No interference in the wheel well on the more aggressive hole.
No noticeable heavyness in steering, but its a little quicker.
It's very intuative - you dont have to completely re-learn the car.
No steering lock / bumpsteer.
No problem resetting the toe.
Big improvement of roll center angle in tie rod.
BIG ANGLE!!












Track testing to follow this weekend.
