Wish this upgrade was legal in club racing!

Yep, I've been waiting for RS uprights since August. No luck finding these anywhere!

HELP
Does anyone have advice and or a picture of the drop link installed with a AWD using the RS uprights.
I'm using a Tarret drop link (C shaped as I have AWD) and having some interference issues with the flexible brake line.



thanks

Get the Elephant Racing AWD or OEM links. The Tarretts have had clearance issues on AWD cars.

Are you using the ER links with RS uprights?

Yes, I presently have the Elephant AWD front drop links. And they're installed on the RS uprights to H&R sway bar. Others in the past have had issues with the Tarret links, not having enough curve, to maintain clearance. The ERP drop links are really stout, and the ends can be replaced, if need be.

Never heard of the brake hose being an issue, the Tarrets dont clear the drive shafts due to not enough curve, I tried but went back to OEM. GT2 uprights with H&R like OB has.

For those of you, who may purchase the ER drop links, make sure you get the top rod end set right. The top rod end, which goes into carrier, has about 35° of travel. If the drop link is centered (in this plane of travel) the link MAY come into contact with CV boot/dust cover. What I did was turn rod end to one end of its travel (closest to hub) and tightened lock nut. This way IF the drop link moves at all, it'll still clear boot. Already called Chuck at ER, and let him know.
