Hi
With the ball joint extension picture that Wally just posted they could be made to make the fitting of the 944 stubs easier instead of using an adaptor bush. On another tangent. Real weight gains could be made with a 3 bolt set-up using molly lower control arms, those cast lower control arms weigh quiet a lot. Steve

another way of doing it would be to use a spherical bearing rather than a ball joint in the outter end of the tca. that way you can then use a shaft to attach to the strut. this shaft can then be made adjustable in hieght so you can set it up to what ever ride hieght you want. this is commen practice on many rally/race cars. yes a spherical joint might be a bit much for a road car and wont last as long as a ball joint but it works and is very strong.
this is on a golf but uses the same idea

Great 2 problems solved in one, much better than the adaptor bush

Regardless of what people think or prefer,I´m sure you´ve given your products a lot of thought and sounds like you wouldn´t sell anything without trying it out and giving your approval first.It´s good to see that another person is offering quality products to the acvw community! Keep it up!

There is nothing more id like than for you to have a set on MYTH BUSTER, proof of the pudding as we say.

Sounds like a perfect opportunity for some testing/prototyping.A high speed 400+bhp test bed (relatively heavy even) under race conditions.Can´t get any better than that.And if he takes the win,you can always say it was due to your parts

I thoroughly enjoy the debates on this forum as it attracts very knowledgable people in intelligent discussion - long may it be so. BTW I too drive my ideas and am more than prepared to admit mistakes and change anything if doesn't work out. Unfortunately, my interest in cars and engineering has to take third place to my business and family commitments so I don't get the time to produce as much as I could. |
