MM, Griggs, Steeda. They are all pretty much the same kits. Kinda hard to make something different on something so specific. I've got Griggs Racing on mine, since I got it cheap.

ok so i got the maximum motorsports bumpsteer and theyre at work on my tool box. i was reading the instructions and it said something about drilling out the spindles for the bolts. has anyone done this and how?

 

[ReplicaR]

Did you get bolt through, or tapered stud? With tapered stud you don't have to drill anything.

 

[Gregor185]

bolt through

 

[ReplicaR]

In that case you do have to drill the spindle right where the rod end bolts up to. It has to be big enough to slide the bolt through. Just don't over do it, and make the opening too big. You could end up with slop in the steering.

i would like to add, i took my spindle to a machine shop. you dont want to drill that hole at an angle, otherwise your S.O.L. i took it to a place with a drill press that could do a nice clean job. TOok them the instruction sheet to ensure there were *no confusions* about what to do....

i thought about getting a spindle from someone whos parting their car out so im not down a car for a wk

 

[ReplicaR]

Or you could just call MM and get tapered studs separately. I bet after it's all said and done, this will be cheaper than buying different spindles, getting them drilled by machine shop, swapping EVERYTHING over from one spindle to the other.

 

[Gregor185]

yeah i should...i saw they sell a bolt conversion separately so hopefully they do the other way around

glad i got the tapered stud design.

I have Baer tie rods on my car, and have used them many times before. The tapered pin is much easier, and is made from 9140 hardened chromoly. I prefer it over a 12 cent bolt.

i looked at MM 's website and they say that the tapered kit is only for "stock" cars. what if in my case you have the tubular k member with coilovers? would you then go with the bolt throws or what?
im a long ways away from my car and cant look at it at the moment and i cant remember how the control arms were

 

[Gregor185]

call first...im sending mine back and getting the tapered stud design
