You dont need to see the hub, just look behind it (stick your head under the back of the car), if 4 bolts stick through the trailing arms, and they are 65mm appart diagonally, then theyll fit...
Just get a ruler and measure the hole centers, thats the only measurement you need to be accurate..
Jetters messed me around, sent the drawing to another place for a quote..
Appart from the different stub thickness, yes.
Same bolt spacing. and the ph1's raised part on the back of the stub is 45mm, which is close to the biggest hole you can fit between the 4 bolt holes, so the PH2 cant be any bigger.
10mm is the max you can fit on a ph1 without needing longer bolts.
I can supply longer bolts to the same spec as the originals with the 15mm spacers for no extra/very small cost.
Ive got the dimensions for a PH2 now, so will be getting 5 sets at 10mm and 5 sets of 15mm water jet from steel.
The quote was for aluminium.
Ill get a quote for steel tomorrow..
Still cant get anything made untill someone measures the hole centers for a ph2
Its easy, the bolts stick out the back, just measure between 2 of them :)
Yea these will be taking NO laod, and you wont be screwing into them.
Ill measure up later, but im 99% sure you can fit 15mm ones and still have the bolts come through the nuts...
Just waiting for someone to confirm the ph2 hole centers, then ill get a batch made...
Price will be £35 for 15mm...
Ill be getting a price for each, but there will be no load going through it, so unless it squashes when you do the bolts up (highly unlikely) then aluminium will be plenty strong enough..
And also, ill need to know how big to make the hole then, as my car is a PH1, so the spacer doesn't go over...
Yea for sure.
Ill just get a quote first, make a thread then see if the price is right.
Dont mind paying for a few sets to be made, but if 20 people want them, I want a deposit first, dont fancy paying for 20 sets to be cut,t hen nobody wanting lol.
Cheers Stu xx
What does everyone want them...
Why must there?
No rotating mass
No longer wheel bolts needed
No extra load on the bearing
Gives you a wider track
Yea id thought about rear camber, but after 3/4 track days the outsides are only very slightly worn compared to the insides, so would only need a tiny bit, may try some washers...
A mate made them for me from ally, they weigh grams each, alot less than any other spacer, and there is no rotating mass, much better and cheaper than a conventional spacer..
Was having 2 made for me, so may aswell make 2 spare ;), maybe selling a set, will see if I can fit 2 spacers each side...
Find a picture of the correct seat
Send them the picture telling them "sorry, ive recently purchased the correct seat, heres a picture"
Receive subframes
Fit subframes.
Done.
If you use a spreader plate roughly 4x2" youll be fine.
Any impact will try and pull a 4x2" inch bit of metal through the arch its not going to happen...
Any cage is s**t if you dont mount it right..
If you weld a cage with no spreader plates its going to be w**k...
Both companies have done something wrong, made aware of it, and done nothing about it. Thats how ive compared them. That ok with you?
But im sure im like 90% of the people in here, know less that 50% of the story, so im not getting into a slagging match off either party.
Thats a ridiculous thing to say!!!!!
What do you know about whos past? Really....?
You dont blag your way that far up the "motorsport" world by knowing nothing. Iirc matt worked for cosworth and prodrive, im pretty sure you dont blag your way through an interview there..
Ktec brought out a...
You moving the gearstick closer to the original mounting now?
Whats the length of that arp compared tot he other half of a cap?
That should tell you if it just snapped, or wound out first.
