[Mk2] [Generic] Roll center adjusters & camber crash bolts.....

Post by Rob »

Anyone know where to get Roll center adjusters from (but not the crazy priced Phoenix Power ones)?

Also - do Camber crash bolts do the same job?

I suggest reading these posts about Roll Centre Adjusters if you have not already done so before deciding to use them;

Any decent machinist could make some up for you at less cost than the commercially available ones I've seen but they wouldn't be anodised.

The RCA should really have a 'shoulder' to fit into the hub (as per the ball joint) and a recess to accept the lower ball joint's shoulder. The hub is such a soft metal you do not want to be relying on the bolts alone.

As per Kameleons comments I have produced a small number of these for use on front and rear of SW20 MR2s. Also I have a few pairs of front camber adjusting pairs. I have been using these myself for ages now and unlike sprinters, AW11's and Nissan S15's a shoulder is not required on SW20 MR2's

These have been produced in 6061 grade CNC machined anodised aluminium.

I have a couple of pairs of front camber adjusting version as per pics.

Can send to those interested directly from Australia or if there is sufficient quantity via my distributor in Germany.

They make a huge difference to the handling of SW20's especially on bumpy uneven camber and surface roads.

I'll post a group buy thread soon but as i said I only have a few sets so I expect to sell these soon.

Pricing is 170 pounds per set of four (two front and two rear) including bolts and washers - postage extra but these are fairly lightweight.

Compare to ex Japan prices!

Questions please PM me.

edit btw these do not fit standard 15" rear rims - minmum 16" rear required.

RCA's fitted to right side of car - notice difference in geometry of right side arm
