Hey rishie, I'm having serious rubbing problems because of those new slottings on the back wheels. The fronts are fine but the backs are rubbing like hell on both the fender(which I will roll a bit later) and on the inside strut(scary looking damage). I will call you later and get this sorted out. I don't even want to drive my car right now because I'm afraid my tires will get destroyed.

BUMP!
 
Thanks for the bump man. :D I think this weekend I'm gonna make some slotted brackets with adjustment screws so the struts and tires will stay at the dialed in setting I put it at. Yay dremmel tool! (rockon)

I give up.
 
William your brackets were mailed out last week. You should have them soon.

Andrew you need to be more specific. Why are you having this problem? Are you having difficult setting the camber in the rear?? FYI, YOU CANNOT USE CAMBER BOLTS WITH THE SLOTTED BRACKETS. THat's a no no. They will not maintain position.

Please call me if you have any concerns.

thanks, Rishie
 
I'll call you after I get off work. I think I have solved the problem, so I will try to implement my idea this weekend when I have some time to get into the garage. The problem is the blots on the hub that bolt up to the bracket keep on sliding under hard cornering and with the tire's tight clearance between shock body and the fender it slides far enough such that it begins to rub on either the fender or the shock body. To compound this problem I've lost the adapter socket for my security lug nuts meaning I can't take the wheels off. I'm gonna try to buy another socket this week and hopefully I can get this sorted out later
 
Rishie. I got the problem solved now so it's cool. I took those washers of the old cam bolts. They had little teeth to keep the hub from sliding around in the strut bracket. No worries! :)
 
Whew! I was worried for a moment that I was going to have problems too. Glad you got it worked out.(thumb)

Sorry about the thread jack melicha8.
 
ah thanks looks good. Do you have any idea if they are going to produce and make them a option with their kits, or no? thanks again.
