As to why it wants to pull to the right when it starts to wobble, that's just simple physics - a rotating mass in harmonic motion (wobble) diverts energy not...
A-arm setups can offer greater travel, in excess of 2 ft, if set up right and you slapped down the dough for it. They are spendy because nearly everything is...

Swapping is basically 4 bolts and the front brake system. Things to do to beef it up??? we always weld on some additional support. If you're looking for disk...

Hrmm, Why does the replacement beam need my old brake system swapped over? The front beam on my "donor" car is complete. But needs some repair(new ball...

The beam comes out as a unit. Like the engine etc. It was built for quick removal and replace. 4 bolts plus 2 brake lines and the steering coupler you are...
Why does the brake system need to be swapped over???? It's the karma for not checking... if you don't plan on it... the former joker would have pulled a few...

There is no such animal as an aluminum ball joint beam. Along with the shock towers check the needle bearings and bushings in the donor beam. BTW, unless you...

Good thoughts. I don't want disc brakes because of a couple of reasons: 1. I've got discs in the rear and just went through hell trying to get them bled. The...
That's a better idea yet! I'm going to need to replace the balljoints anyways. I'll go ahead and remove them at the spindles to make things a little easier....

I'm not the one who bent the beam. It appears to have been bent from before I owned it. I'll check the beam over well before I install it. I know the one I...
Well. I seem to have mistaken myself. A new beam from EMPI was like 170.91 not 300. A new CB Performance one is like 159.90 or something. But, the BJ Beam...
