How to make your own custom adjustable control arms with no welding. I do it for my 2006 R53 Mini Cooper S project car but it will work for any car or truck. DIY. Custom suspension should be fun.
Realize now I incorrectly say tie rods a lot. You probably know what i mean

Thanks for watching everyone! If you wanted to get really DIY you could drill into the end of the some hex bars and tap them yourself but that seems a little too hardcore when the bars are not that expensive.

Great video. You’ve come a long way-my engine is still out :( I have so much work to do.

Thanks, this is a very informative video. I didn't know those hime joint spacers existed

I hope lots of people order from that site for offset spacers and then there is some person somewhere at that off-road site having no idea why the smallest spacers they sell are popular all of a sudden.

Nice that’s awesome!! only I don’t like about these is that there’s no seal so eventually they will wear

@RegardingAutomobiles Жыл бұрын

Good point. I’ll have to see what I can do to prevent/delay that.

What did you do for the ball joints

@RegardingAutomobiles Ай бұрын

Hi! These are for the rear of the car so no ball joints.

The AK047? I saw them at ECS for $153 a pair. With shipping (for 4) that is $378 plus tax and duty etc to Canada. Shipping prices to Canada are like we are on another planet sometimes.
