Hi guys, I just installed the new gktech rear drop knuckles with voodoo13 arms.

There seems to be clearance issues with the voodoo13 RUCA and the placement of the axle with the gktech knuckles. It seemed if adjusters backed off just a little bit it would let the whole RUCA swing down. When installing I thought it looked really close and I compressed the suspension to make sure it didn't hit. I was a little uneasy about it, so I made sure the adjusters were really tight:

Installed:


Alas, it wasn't enough, the adjuster DID back off letting the whole RUCA swing down:

Little video showing what I am talking about.

Aftermath:






Voodoo13 arms are great, gktech knuckles are fantastic, just not that great together.

Just a heads up for people. I am currently looking for options on different arms to see what has the safest clearance.

I'm also looking for an axle
