Found some shop time today to fab some all 4130 A-arms with Del-alum bushings for my 92.

Nice, so where do we sign up for a set
Congrats on getting another awesome project completed and for stunning us again :hail: :hail: :hail: LOL

 

One more picture on the car.

 

You know Jerry, that looks good by the way, I also decided to go with a PA front suspension setup. But I am going to get the mild steel (for street use) option instead. So how is your project going, apart from the obvious.

 

You made those yourself? That looks darn good! What do you do for a living if you don't mind me asking? Also, did you make that K-member? If so, do you plan to make more for sale? Any other pictures you could show me (us) of the K-member? Thanks.

Jason, look at my thread (Suspensions (opinions please)), I talk about it there. Jerry is using a chrome moly K-member from PA Racing.

 

Hi
Randy, George and Jason

I wanted a set of tube style A arms to go with the P.A. Racing K-member. The problem is my car is coil over and all the arms made for a coil over car are drag race only with small tubes and polly style bushings. The arms I produced have Global west road race type bushings and the tube size is larger than any i have found.

My stock arms and K-member are now at a friends shop he is a road racer and will be making arms for sale to use the stock style springs with a Nascar type weight screw in them. I think thats the style you will want so you can raise and lower your car with the turn of a jack screw.

His 89 Camaro has gone 215 mph plus and he needs a A arm for the turns and the open road. The next meeting i will bring a set for you to see.

Always great to see what some guys put together in their garages. I know we all look forward to you & Lon showing us some new goodies that you have crafted. Thanks for the sneak peek!

 

Jerry,
Nice work!

I'm definitely down for a set of those arms with the jack screws. Keep us posted on the progress.

 

Jerry, you said you have coil overs? Do they impede on tire width clearance? I am building my car for autocross and have always wanted coil overs!

 

Coil overs are more for drag racing. I don't think you want 'em for autocross.

 

Sorry, I didn't make myself clear. I want to put coil over struts from JRZ on my car.

My friend has a 944 he races with the full JRZ set up and it is really easy to tune and adjust for different track situations.
Since my first autocross experience was with the POC I have only heard great things about JRZ and the products they produce!

I have talked to people with Third Gen cars that use the caster camber plates from Ground Control, however they said that the adjustability is very limited. This is why I am interested in the JRZ set up.
