s13 front spindle swap...(not joking)


Recommended Posts

Alright, let start off by giving you the plan. s13 front spindles and coilovers, z32 front calipers, hubs and SS AN -4 lines with the appropriate adapters, HOWE rebuildable screw in lower ball joints and the weld in sleeves, subaru PS rack with HEIM joint outer tie rods, wilwood dual M/C brake pedal assembly, custom hard brake lines up front, proportionion valve for the rear.

 

Alright, this is how i want to do it.

 

FLCA:

take a stock 240z FLCA and reinforce where the ball joint bolts on with some steel plate, then cut out a hole where the sleeve slips through, then press the sleeve into the hole, weld it, screw in new ball joint, grease, install new bushings. Done.....

 

spindles:

ream out existing hole for stock ball joint to required specs of new ball joint, ensure theres enough material left on the spindle after reaming for safety purposes. Done....

 

subaru rack/HEIM steering:

already mounted to crossmember, aquire two HEAVY duty circle track spec steering HEIM joints and steering studs, screw together, then onto the rack, grease. Done...

 

After all of that it should bolt together and one nice product would result. I still have almost no idea what i am going to do about the rear brakes and driveline, but it will probably end up being the MM billet stub axles with an r230 and the AZC billet rear mounts and control arms.

 

 

So what do you think?
