lower control arms rx gq

Post by fatsogq »

gday my rx has a slight vibration from take off i've been told its the pinion angle where the car has been slightly lifted(4") and that adjustable lower control arms will fix this, (if you look at the tailshaft you can see where the tube that goes in to the rubber seal is being pulled out further than on a standard car) has anybody had this problem and solved it? cheers :lol:

Replace you lower control arms with 16mm longer H/D control arms and vibration will go away

Ive got 3.5inch lift in my shorty had bad vibrations till i got up 80kmh and they went away.
But once i put 16mm longer control arms in the vibrations went away 4 good.

Can bye adjustable control arms but will cost heaps or just bye 16mm longer control arms for about $130 for a pair
