how has this not been posted yet? another cool product idea from GKTech for the s-chassis.
pros: inexpensive, uses the stock knuckle, corrects roll center, corrects bumpsteer, widens track, adds more negative camber, any ackermann angle possible depending on where they drill the new tie rod pickup hole.
cons: heavier than a cut/weld knuckle or GKTech's billet knuckles, increases scrub radius.
what else am i missing? obviously the geometry isn't 100% ideal, but it seems to nail all the basics in a concise package. are there any specific reasons to avoid this design entirely, besides guys doing high level competition?
overall this looks like an AWESOME product idea for grassroots drifting. cheaper than modded knuckles, no downtime (since you don't need to send your knuckles out), corrects roll center and bump steer, and it's got that all-important billet gansterness.
what say you, suspension geometry geeks?
