Slater Posted May 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 FYI to anyone on the fence about a kit. I have TWO kits left ready to ship, and then they are out of stock again for a few weeks.On another note, the V/S40 links are at the plater's geting plated as we speak, and should be ready in a few days.- Slater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibim Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Very interested in a set of these. I'm estimating shipping to SA at about $70? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have sent them to Ukraine, Hong Kong, UK, and a few other faraway places and the most shipping cost was about $40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prasamin Posted June 24, 2005 Report Share Posted June 24, 2005 got mine V3??? They look saaaweeeett.....can't wait to put them on when I do the suspension this weekend What was it, 7 turns, that everyone is doing? I don't know what to do, and don't want to keep taking them off to adjust, so if everyone likes 7, then I'll do 7! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget to tighten the lock nuts again. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budoboy Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 WOW is one way of putting it.I just installed my new endlinks yesterday and even on the shortest setting, they made a huge difference. I have a lot less body roll and I haven't even played around with adjusting them yet.Good work Slater!!!-BB :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prasamin Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 now that i got my wheel key back, i have to see what's rattling in there, and make them a bit shorter!just loosen the lock nut and turn the shaft of the link with a wrench right?

budoboy Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 I guess that is what is confusing to me. According to the instructions that came with the links, the shorter the links, the more body roll....the longer the links the less body roll. I always thought the idea was to achieve less body roll for better, flatter handling.I have them set to the shortest setting but have significantly less body roll than before.It's probably due to the fact that my old links were so shot.-BB :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are 10xs stronger than the stock links, allowsing the sway bar to work properly. The SWAY BAR is what reduces body roll. That is why you are seeing reduced body roll at the shortest setting.Making them longer will reduce understeer, which is not recommended for everyone. You have to know what you are doing and why you need a certain length. It may because you have particular needs for autoxing, or a certain sway bar combination, or your wheel base set a certain way with spacers. The adjustable links are just another suspension tuning tool, and like any tool should be used when needed. This is why I recommend you keep the links at the stock settings (i.e. shortest) unless you NEED to change them for a good reason.So I would just keep them where they are now. That's where I have mine.- Slater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
