I need a bigger sway bar to reduce body roll. I think there is some daylight on the inside tire acclerating out of a turn.

Found out I have some slop in my low friction ball joints. Too much slop for me, time for upgrades. I will be going to a sperical bering instead and have some roll center and camber gain adjustments. But this change will put out for GG del mar.

I cant wait to see the tech write-up for this one. Sounds interesting.

I think I like engineering and building more than I like driving. HAHA. Race four laps then take the car down for a month or more and do upgrades.

LOL... I here ya... I just finished getting the car back on the road, had a great Goodguys weekend, and now have a list 12 items long with 7 sub-items to be completed before Goodguys comes back in October.

Everyone likes car part porn!



And that should stiffen things up a little.

I have been sick for the last week, but I was still able to order parts.





These are aluminum hosing ball joints that will thread into my upper and lower control arms. This should give me a better, more precise pivot point. It also allows me to adjust my suspension. Add or remove shims from the LCA and raise/lower the car. Add or remove shims from the UCA and adjust camber gain. Also I can adjust roll center at the same time.

You engineers come up with the coolest stuff. Now where did you find that at?
