cheers dude, I'll be up for that s14 plenum someday

HSD coilovers in, testing the steering lock today with standard arms, The size and location of the calipers makes achieving a good angle impossible with the standard setup. As well as that the Caster angle and hub, with the standard arms on full lock there's serious positive camber on the side turned out. So I'm attempting to fabricate my own arms. If all goes to plan I should have Caster and Camber adjustment.



Here's the simple gig that will mock up the new Rose jointed arms. The one gig will make both sides as they will be a simple mirror image of one another. Both arms will be near 3" longer



Going to offset the ball joint pick up point to reduce some of the caster angle. Will do this below as well.



Top arms should be pretty easy, its the bottom ones I'm worried about
Wish wisefab had a kit for this
