You would need to run Google Translate etc. Says some bolts need to change due to longer lengths needed for the alu knuckle. But also an interesting problem about the outboard ball joint (not possible to buy separately) of the FLCA being not long enough. Maybe thats the reason for the diff part number rather than any geometry changes?
Wonder if an (even lighter....) aftermarket FLCA (cusco, SPL, racerX) can fit the alu knuckles instead. Since the stock FLCA cannot plug and play per se. What the writer did was get a toyota castle nut which is thinner where it counts to allow the pin to successfully engage still. |
Ah yes I knew I'd seen a link like that a while back. Not a simple plug and play it seems but certainly doable.
