Half Shaft Spacers
 
Is anyone developing half shaft spacers for the FRS? A few companies make them for the S2000 and is a must for anyone with modified suspension. My friend is already having issues.

Or is someone working on another solution?

Thanks!

I already told him his wheel/suspension is broke. I haven't heard of anyone running a "reasonable" amount of drop having any issues with half shafts.

Actually, No.

He tracks his car and has over 20,000 miles. It probably won't happen to everyone, but preventative measures are always a good thing. Especially when people start getting serious with more aggressive Limited Slip Differentials.

Haven't a few of the lowered track day peeps damaged/destroyed CV joints already? If this is related to over extending the axles, it may be something worth looking into.

Yes, yes, I'd be one of those blokes. Anything yet?
