I have the Kinetix camber arm, they seem to work ok.

Were you in the driver's seat when the camber measurement was taken? Driver weight can/will yield different readings than when the car is empty.

I have the SPL front endlinks that I'm willing to sell. Never used. PM me an offer if anyone is interested.

Nope. I will see if tires plus will let me try that next time.

Just placing some ballast weights equal to your weight in the drivers seat should get the job done if they won't let you sit in it.

Replaced the end links with some oe style ones with greasable joints. We'll see how long they last. Has anyone with a hotchkiss front bar found a quiet, reliable endlink solution?

edit:

Maybe I'll cop these lol

I have the SPL endlinks and haven't noticed them to make any noticeable noise.

How long have you had them and how often do you street drive your car?

gomer_110 04-07-2017 06:49 AM

I've had them on for about 3 years. During that time the car has seen maybe 30-40 hrs per year of street driving under varying conditions. That is also with 1100 lb/in springs up front so I probably have less movement than a stock car.

Mine will squeak or make noise from time to time. It is a combination of the sway, solid bushing and spl upper A arm. I just give them a good shot of lithium grease and they quit right up.

My SPL end links were starting to clunk - as per my shop they said there was some play but nothing serious. I had them rebuilt just to prevent failure and stop the damn clunking noise. Haha I've had them on for about 3 years now, and daily drive the car + 10-12 autocross events per year.

Has anyone figured a fix for overheating the clutch? I run two drivers in the south and after some consecutive runs the clutch gets hot and feels soft.
Also I recently replaced stock pads with hawk hps+ and have some ice mode/and lock up fairly easy from a higher stop, running square wheels does anyone think that's the issue? Has anyone had this problem and ran a slightly taller rear? Anyway to stop the computer from doing this without pulling any abs fuse?

Bleed your clutch with a good brake fluid. Then wrap your clutch line with insulation. I used kaowool.

When you get ice mode. Is one of the rear tires starting to lock up first? If so, you might want to run a less aggressive pad on the rear. That's why alot of people run the 10/8 combo.
