what advantage will i get over a good set of strengthened bottom arms , with poly bushes and rose jointed front mounts but the chris astley style and adjustable top mounts
is it just the caster adjustment that really makes the difference and could i not just adjust this with the topmounts.
would really like this kit but have recently brought all the bits above.
You can't dial in much castor just using top mounts which is why this setup is more ideal.
You also shouldn't dial in much castor on bushed tca's as it will wear the bush quickly.
I did use the same setup you have years ago on my own nova and it was a good upgrade for the costs, the only thing available back then was the Pilbeam setup which is mega pricey and still is mega pricey when you consider this kit is still half the cost.
The Astley brackets could be modifed if you wished and the eccentric mounts could still also be used
feel gutted but am gonna have to use all the bits ive got as cant afford to change now. sorry
Thats not a problem mate, I'm not forcing anyone to buy them.
