It is more or less .5" I don't have an exact measurement, but just from the eye that is what it looks like.

 

So a Race Fab Evo X LCA would give you about 1.5" increased track width on each side.

Nice.

 

how does one get a hold of robi these days? i thought he was gone since all web presence pretty much is.

im quite interested in doing this.

 

i don't think he offers anything anymore.

 

What are you doing for tie rods?? Such a sexy part.

 

Get a machine shop to make an extension for you to go on the end of the steering rod.

 

what are you doing for tie rod ends?

 

In theory it shouldn't be too hard, I just have no one anywhere near me that could do it

 

A female to male coupler would work with the stock steering rod end and the Whiteline one.

This is a female to female coupler on a Nagisa toe arm. The stock steering rod is 14x1.5 and the rod end the Nagisa uses is 16x1.5 thread. A bit heavy since the coupler is Stainless Steel but I didn't want to use Aluminum like the Nagisa piece comes as. Originally they left it as hex bar the whole way but it was really heavy and I asked them to cut the material down on the lathe.

The whiteline piece is 3" center of ball joint to end. My steering rod end can extend up to 4 7/8".

 

Anybody have a connection to a machine shop that could get some made? I'd be in for a set. I'll keep looking but I have a feeling something like that isn't commercially available

Edit: actually, you could weld some threaded rod to the tie rod end and then use a coupling nut.

 

You just call him. Every time I call he answers . I try to call about noon to 2pm PT.


I am going up to his shop next Wednesday to get my X arms all done.

 

Subscribed. Very interested in this.

 

So do we have any idea how much load the steering arms see?

Really contemplating attempting this with a coupling nut and some threaded rod. According to Geoff from full races thread, you can keep one stock end link and can just diy one adjustable one for the other side.


Hardest part appears to be finding a set of non wrecked lcas

 

My DIY bump steer kit. I used a female m14x1.5 rod end and extended it. I machined a piece and tapped it m14x1.5. Then i threaded it and the rod end onto a bolt and welded it. Remove bolt, chase threads and paint it. Just gotta be careful not to overheat the rod end when welding and deform the teflon. I drilled out the taper on the knuckle so the bolt would pass and used washers to get the tie rod angle right. Then I machined a spacer from 6061 for the permanent solution.

 

well..... I do have a set for sale already upgraded to the max
