@TeeLew Are you running any of Steeda's RCC mods with this? This definitely peaks my curiosity, since the lateral link with extended ball joint reduces the track width of the front wheels.
Would be interesting to measure how much more track width you can get by reducing the caster on the...
Hey all, I was curious about the lifespan and durability of the spherical bearing.
I got the FRPP knuckle bearing installed this weekend (what a huge PITA that was), and wanted to be sure of my decision to go poly vs spherical before I tackle the RLCA.
I bought the BK055, but am hesitant to...
Awesome, thanks! That's reassuring :) I will definitely take a look at your build thread!
Seems like the specs you, bluemustang, bmac, and others run are the best way to go for a non-coilover handling setup
Hey Bluemustang!
Hope your car is bringing you smiles throughout 2021 :)
Quick question: How much clearance do you have between the strut bolt and the strut opening?
I ask this because I have pretty much the same as your setup, and want to do 2.0 degree or more camber in the front. I'm a...
Hey @Bluemustang !
Glad to see the stiffer front bar setting was worth it! How is the trade off in ride quality? I’m about to install my bar, but I think I should initially set it soft, as it should be very close to a stock GT350R bar rate on the softest setting. I live in Northern California...
Ahh, makes sense. So it also sounds like it will make the kingpin inclination axis more vertical but also pull in the track so the scrub radius change should be nonexistent or negligible. Looks like there shouldn't be any fitment problems rubbing on the strut either.
I'm imagining a spacer...
Hi @BMR Tech ,
What are the steps for me to apply this to the BK055 RLCA bearing? Should I press in the bearing first and then spray it? How thorough of a spray coat should I apply?
Thanks!
Hi @BmacIL and @khsonic03
Could you describe in more detail what was said in regards to the RCC Lateral Links causing track width decrease?
In my mind, I'm imagining this being the result of less static negative camber, which should not cause strut rubbing as the angle between the wheel and the...
Definitely. My priorities in this order are:
1. Frequent (weekly) spirited driving through backroads.
2. Occasional (probably once or twice a year) AutoCross and/or track events.
3. Meet the above 2 criteria without ruining my spine as a DD (I'm only 26 so I don't mind a firm ride, and my...
Hi Rebellion, could you briefly summarize or link examples of alignment changes and how they correspond to the balance of the car? I've never thought about using alignment as a tool for this :)
Hi All!
I'm new here, and there's a lot of great information on this thread and across this forum. Hopefully this is the right place to post this!
I'm looking to stiffen-up my car and make the steering more responsive - while still being daily-drivable.
I daily drive a 2017 Mustang GT PP...
