these are things that i have paid very close attention too that alot of the competition has failed to acount for. the outside cup angle is very important. i have angled it so that at ride height it is perfectly in the center (with proper or close to proper roll center) this allows for the same travel on bump and droop.
the factory has there ball joint angled the same way.maybe they were on to something
it is tilted down to match the angle of knuckle and pointed BACKWARD slightly to acount for the caster angle.
some of the competitions FLCA are almost completly maxed out of its articulation range just sitting still and to fix the problem they offer TWO DIFFERANT CONTROL ARMS??? with differant cup angles??? I decieded to just make ONE the right way.
I tested these lower control arms at the track this weekend no binding of any kind.
