We got a new lower control arm that will now clear up to 315's on the front! The first design was creating tire rub when we went full lock to lock & had to many rack n pinion limiters.. I really did not want do a fabricated control arm but was the easiest way to get clearance..

The spindle also changed.. When we welded the caliper mounting brackets they distorted a bit.. Did not like that.. so we redesigned the caliper mount bracket to bolt directly to the machined part of the spindle plus it holds the Wilwood radial mount caliper.. It interlock for less flex on caliper mount which translates to better pedal feel.. Plus we took some weight out of it..Waiting for SKF bearing packs from Van Steel & we will bolt these on next week..
