I think people that attended the PNG Trackday yesterday will maybe appreciate the gains this setup can make now.

ive already got some chris astley rose jointed tie bar brackets could this be used at all? as your tie bar wont mate up to my tie bar mount.
cheers
Yes the brackets could be modified and used, you wouldn't use those style rose joints though.
This was a set that were modified :
Hi, I was just wondering if the adjustable tie rods could be made with a left hand bearing at one end and a right hand one at the other so that the rod was adjustable in-situ. Would this be possible and if so, how much extra would it cost?
looking forward to seeing Jonboys responce to this question.
Jonboy bought some from lee303, which meant the car would steer itself, very dangerous they were.
In short - don't do it.
Cheers Olly, I wasn't sure if this idea would result in them adjusting themselves as you were driving. Just a thought.
not so much the self adjustment.... more the severe twist/canting of the TCA where the RJ connected to it wont offer any twisting support (unless you mounted it vertically, but then there are problems with that too
Lee's now locked that rose joint in place on his ones to get over the original issues, I don't really like it done that way and the only gains are ease of adjustment not actually any geometry gains, It could be done though and I do have 2 suitable LH thread joints for the job so drop me a PM if your interested.

Wow Olly that was bitchy. I have a set of Lee's and yes your right the early setup did cause movement. However the joint is now fixed but still offers the on car adjustment. For example when my crossmember kept moving I was able to re adjust my castor as to get to PV. I did this on the side of the M1! There is nothing wrong with either of the designs, I personally prefere the on car adjustment, however this said I don't think Lee is selling the kits any more, to much grief from 'know-it-alls'.Originally Posted by trackdaynova

What I say to anyone buying this kit is, CHECK your crossmember properly, I mean remove the rad and have a good dig round with the screw driver, mine look ok-ish however when it met the screwdriver it wasn't.
