new design for adjustable uca's - Infamous Nissan

beebani · 08-29-2011, 10:22 PM

Working on a new design for hardbody/fronty upper control arms, they will be fully adjustable for caster and camber and should clear bags easily.

Lemme know what you think.

how much would something like that cost? im not too familiar with control arms on nissans but it looks like it would work to me. could you make them to fit the yota ball joints?

theyre similar to race car type arms... good idea adopting them to nissans...
whats your plans on the crossshaft, due to the angle of the hiem joints?

actually the heims in the drawing aren't the ones I'm gonna use, the ones I plan on are high misalignment style. Capable of 36 degree angles, so I'll do a machined cross shaft with threads in the ends.

I got the idea for these watching the mazda/ranger build on trucks, the mustang upper arms they used were like this.

I could adapt them to yota joints easily.

the mounting from the ball joint plate to the clevis would have to be solid wouldnt it?

no, the design I saw has the clevis bolted to the ball joint plate, I just don't have the bolts drawn in yet.

Hmm I like the idea. Simple. Hopefully it will hold up.
