m30drift 15 March, 2018 at 05:15 Reply The steering rack looks like its way far back, does it matter ?
tito3kr 15 March, 2018 at 05:20 Reply Looks like u won’t to be able to get as much angle once the wheels are mounted. looks super good though
kyle__g._ 15 March, 2018 at 05:21 Reply @m30drift that appears to be “too far” forward. And I think the rack relocation stuff you see on the market actually moves the rack further from the center line between the hubs.
revforward 15 March, 2018 at 05:27 Reply @tito3kr seriously you think they designed a whole custom front end without wheel sizes and offset in mind o.O
tito3kr 15 March, 2018 at 05:30 Reply @revforward disnt say that at all try picturing a 18 in rim right now in the spot it is in it would be rubbing. There is plenty of adjustments to help but Matt will even say it will rub as of right now. Look how close the rotor is to the lca
revforward 15 March, 2018 at 05:31 Reply @tito3kr simple as wheel offset man. I’ve seen calipers touch lca and there is still wheel clearance
tito3kr 15 March, 2018 at 05:33 Reply @revforward even with a good enough offset to clear that would push it further out his catch can is right there so he’s a little limited.
tito3kr 15 March, 2018 at 05:39 Reply @revforward look as his story he doesn’t have as much angle with the wheel on. That’s all I was saying
revforward 15 March, 2018 at 05:39 Reply @tito3kr catch can position is the limitation of max achievable lock. I’m sure there can be changes and limits can be pushed further in such a build
tito3kr 15 March, 2018 at 05:41 Reply @revforward I agree with you 100% I was just stating in it’s current state it will not achieve that much lock with a wheel on.
revforward 15 March, 2018 at 05:41 Reply @tito3kr tie rod is stilp over balljoint looks the same to me o.O
mattfield777 15 March, 2018 at 05:42 Reply @tito3kr yea those wheels were 9.5 so my 9s should help with more
teeson1111 15 March, 2018 at 05:47 Reply Wow. Been trying to figure out tho, what’s the bolt on the upper arm for? Assuming removing the coilover easier or something
mattfield777 15 March, 2018 at 06:07 Reply @tcpmagic thank you! Loving this double wishbone suspension!
mattfield777 15 March, 2018 at 06:08 Reply @teeson1111 because our upper is caster adjustable as well, you would loosen, adjust caster, tighten, to avoid bind in the joints
m30drift 15 March, 2018 at 06:13 Reply Dam matt, are you by any chance hiring for part time? I can do janitorial stuff for your shop. I can sweep the shop floor. Or an extra hand on anything.
rotaryae86 15 March, 2018 at 06:16 Reply @mattfield777 keep up the good fight big work with that rack placement it looks like
fully_spooled 15 March, 2018 at 10:32 Reply Utterly insane. Loving Field Prep @mattfield777 can’t wait to watch in Long Beach.
cleantune 15 March, 2018 at 11:59 Reply Looking great! I’m interested to see how the coils fit into this setup!
dmac86official 15 March, 2018 at 12:49 Reply Looks good. Be interested to see it turned the other way with the rack that far forward
