i am building some bolt-in adjustable bumpsteer kits.
these will include a drop-in stud that allows you to flip the tierod under the steering knuckle, rodend, jam nuts, tierod to rodend coupler and adjusting spacers.
$150 shipped
these are bolt-in kits, that DO NOT require any machine work
i should have them done in about 3 weeks
if you have time to make digital art, post it here
if you have some graphix , fonts, ideas, that you don't have time to illustrate, post it here
and beeee veeeeerrrry
It appears that the stud is tapered... will you sell just the stud?

these will move the ball pivot under the steering knuckle minimum of .25", so the adjustment range will be 1.75" - 3" or so lower than stock.

Do you have a bumpsteer gauge and the means to graph out the bumpsteer on something with a really common ride height (say one inch lower, ie hyperco's). I'm just wondering if 1.75 inches lower is to much or not for a car thats not super low. If it will help with bumpsteer on a mildly lowered car I'm definatly in for a set.
it seems mildly lowered cars would still want the rodends above the knuckle (but with the ball pivot lowered). after looking through aurora's catalog i don't see a rodend that wouldn't bind through the stock suspensions 26*+ (as i measure it) of travel. aurora specs thier 5/8" rodend at 26* of travel. a little too tight for my tastes!!!
the 1.75" below stock ball pivot measurement came from mounting the rodend under the knuckle using "Misalignment Inserts" that would increase the travel of the rodends.
i suppose if you are using a suspension that reduces travel, you could get away with not using the inserts. this would lose about 3/8" making the ball pivot about 1.375" below stock.
enough for now.............. i got some investigating to do
there has been some miscommunication w/ the machine shop. they thought i was supplying material. so, i'm going shopping tomarrow and getting it out to them.
it changes the angle of the tie rods so when you lower a car and the suspension move ie going around the corner the toe does not change due to a binding actuion that happens bc the angle of the tie rods are in conflict of that of the control arms
