We will have the arms, cross shaft, delrin bushings [and Britt] on display at Nashville. The new system will be installed on our 66 Chevelle that will be running the autocross.
The delrin material we are using is self lubricating so there is no grease mess neccessary. We've run this material in Rodney's Suburban for the last 2 years to test durability...they've been quiet and no wear at all.
Because we've made the investment to injection mold the delrin versus machining it from solid stock, we've been able to incorporate some cool design and functionality features...AND with no extra cost to the customer.
BUT...before anyone asks...in most cases, they are not retrofitable to the previous style StrongArms. Doing that would have prevented incorporating several of the design and performance features. We chose to leapfrog ahead with a complete system instead of being tethered to the previous dimensions.
