Has anybody ever compared a narrowbody to widebody front strut and compared where the difference lies (exc the spindle angle)? In the shaft insert or in the strut body??
:? :? :?
I'm so close to being a part of this group buy.....the widebody suspension/geometry is miles apart from the 2L narrowbody!!!!
Quality and compliance issues hold me back!!
the cast steel spindle is different as the steering axis inclination is different between a narrow and a wide.
this doesnt affect the useability on a narrowbody or widey as the original spindle is reused, the length difference between narrow and wide can be dialled out with the height adjustment.

Ready to go!!! Widey needs a decent suspension esp. after the drive to Bathurst!
:beer :beer
MAL! . I'll squeeze you in but you're the last one... I take your word you'll transfer asap (check your PM for details). Lucky you're a good guy and I trust you... :D
Hardly... The other guys were just super quick and beat you too it. As for slow, see Mal's post. He almost missed the boat... :D It should be ok. :? Lets think positive.
now that this is actually going ahead, where are the sydney people going to get theirs installed?

I assume, being that it is a group buy, that we have no choice on the matter of spring rates?

He did mention something about an extra cost. See earlier post. But personally wouldn't bother. The spring rate have been matched to the Starion weight and shock. It might be too late now anyhow. I guess if you really hate the spring rates you can get another set later.
