For sale is a set of S14 OEM modified: arms, spindles, and steering rods. The modified components allow you to adjust roll center in the front of your car for increased roll resistance and balance. Here's what's included...

The spindle's tapered holes for the LCA and tie rod bolt are drilled out to accept a straight through type bolt with the addition of spacers to adjust roll center and bump steer between the LCA and spindle.

The front lower control arm (LCA) was modified to use a weld-in teflon coated spherical bearing. A custom bushing was made to bolt to the subframe (which you will most likely be removing due to oem caster adjustment via tension rod). The bottom of the arm was boxed for additional strength.

The tie rods are cut and welded to allow a high strength teflon coated spherical bearing to replace the pillow ball.

The work was done by Steen Chassis and Fabrication (http://www.steenchassis.com/) who has 30+ years of welding experience. The quality of the set will require you to purchase bolts, spacers, washers and nuts to mount the spindle to the LCA and tie rod.

Wow, so you're selling the old setup! I remember talking about this!

This is a great way to get adjustable bump-steer and roll center, and definitely the cheapest way. What did you use for caster adjustment with those huge bushings in there mmdb?

I'm not parting out the setup because the holes in the spindle match the diameters of the LCA and tie rod ends. So everything works together.

I ended up using the GP Sports knuckle so caster adjustment via tension rod length was kept. I never installed these unfortunately.

As for this setup, I'd recommend pressing out the bushing and using the oem bushings; or adding a spherical endlink for caster adjustment. Otherwise you'll need to use upper shock plates that allow for caster/camber adjustment and the use of an OEM type tension rod that uses a bushing instead of a bearing.
