Modern Motorsports Ltd Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 Here's a quick update to respond to the requests we've had lately on our rear adjustable control arm progress: Fully oncar adjustable rear control arms, fully engineered and very effective design allows full use of OEM bushings, spindle pin, mounting bolts etc. This was one of the design teams primary goals and was achieved. Designed with each piece accomplishing it's full function with no duplication and easy adjustment. They weigh in same as stock arms, are adjustable for camber and toe. Prototype's were made and are being tested at present with production plans underway. Price not yet finalized at this stage, but not expected to exceed $500US. PS, new announcements on our Z31 CV and R230 CV adaptors posted here: http://www.hybridz.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=30473 and http://www.hybridz.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=30475 Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim240z Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Ross, Just curious, when adjusting toe (thus adjusting one side shorter and one side longer), would the angle at the threads not increase on one side and decrease on the other, thereby placing increased stress on the adjusters?, or am I missing something completely?.......I have no engineering degree and thus know not of what I speak very often......

240Z2NV Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 What ever happened with these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I'll share an email I recieved from Ross a few days ago. I'm ordering a set. Control arms were pushed as hard as our nerves allowed us to push Ken's supercharged Z at the 1/2 mile high bank oval and then at the Georgia SEZ drag's. Group that designed and fabricated them does this for a living and is all AWS certified etc etc, they're plenty strong:) I've got a queued list of prepaid orders as a result of the well received interest in Florida to ensure their order timing from the first run. They're $595 a set, fully adjustable on the car with the benefits of full adjustment but no detriments of heims (we can do them with heims for diehards that insist on them). They should come out in a blue powdercoat in final production, expected to be about 3 weeks right now. Ross Corrigan Custom Brake/Suspension/Powertrain Solutions for your Z! Modern Motorsports Ltd.

pparaska Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I'd love to see a photo of these. The link at the top of this thread is broken. I went to Ross's site and didn't see this part listed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikelly Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Very nice indeed... Coming from some hack who just whipped a few sets together, these look friggin' awesome and simple in design, form and function! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
