quickrack Posted May 19, 2008 Report Posted May 19, 2008 Fitted this and a twin cam arb. Looks like its way to far forward at the bottom. Do i need to fit some spacers on the arb. It came with some ?? Or will it settle with weight on it??
mk3cokebottle Posted May 19, 2008 Report Posted May 19, 2008 looks odd to me mate , i have always known suspension to be true and straight if anything the angle is outward facing
quickrack Posted May 19, 2008 Author Report Posted May 19, 2008 Measured roughly and the TC ARB is nearly 2" shorter from tca hole to the mount point under front panel, than a standard bar!
X FLOW EDDY Posted May 19, 2008 Report Posted May 19, 2008 If memory serves you need "Twin cam" chassis brackits to go with the twin cam ARB, Thats why i never botherd geting one for mine.
john_3.0s Posted May 19, 2008 Report Posted May 19, 2008 is it the same both sides?? are the tca mounts original or have they been re-drilled at some stage and moved?
Tom Posted May 19, 2008 Report Posted May 19, 2008 I though you could adjust twin cam arb's with shim washers to alter castor - maybe thats why
Twinkle Posted May 19, 2008 Report Posted May 19, 2008 I though you could adjust twin cam arb's with shim washers to alter castor - maybe thats why the twin cam mounts are different to standard ones and as tom says they need shimming with washers to set the angle correctly. if you notice the threaded portion od the arb is also longer than on a standard bar
quickrack Posted May 19, 2008 Author Report Posted May 19, 2008 Okay then. Cos it came with a handfull of washers, 3 different sizes. Will be able to get it about midway between where it is now and a standard one. Thanks for the help
quickrack Posted May 20, 2008 Author Report Posted May 20, 2008 Like this?? http://s143.photobucket.com/albums/r145 ... Spaced.jpg
john_3.0s Posted May 20, 2008 Report Posted May 20, 2008 i think the ARB brackets are different for RS models too, might be worth checking
