So I have been thinking of making these for a while but have just never got around to it, I just have to TIG on a tab to locate the second hole for the caster arm but im really happy how they turned out.
I will be making some for my 180SX in the future aswell.

Nice! What Tie Rod Ends are those?
Filip
Nice work.
They are very similar to the cusco ones made for ae86 and they only use one bolt for the castor.
Food for thought!

I see were the LCA mounts to the chassis that you made 3 different mounting heights. What are the benifogs of that?

Is there a ring for the balljoint to clip into? Is it a stock on?

Would definitely buy those control arms if you made them for standard tension rods. Amazing work as always.

Liking awesome Nigel!
Surely the 3 different holes are for adjusting the angle of the LCA to dial out bumpsteer??
Jase
Beto, your answer is here. 🙂
Jelani
wouldnt the bumpsteer because by the angle of the tie rod not the lower control arm i then the control arm would be roll center adjustment

When it comes time to do a bit of suspension geometry fiddling, I think I’m going to have to give you a call.

Having the castor rod join to the top of the LCA like that is destined for trouble. Should be mounted in front of the LCA and also in double shear.
