Balljoint Spacer

Post by rocknferoza »

I've been thinking about getting balljoint spacers made up for the independent torsion bar setup on my feroza.

How thick can the spacer be? I know i can get 60mm lift with still having a bit of down travel.
Would 75mm/3 inches be possible with a spacer?
Would I need an engineers cert for the balljoint spacer?

Thanx
James

I've done this mod. Sent in application to qld trpt and got it all aproved. mine are 10mm thick and bjoint is flipped from top side to bottom side. Not sure on measurements of travel but it would vary from car to car. I don't know if this is common practice on ferozas but it is on isuzu's in the states and also pajeros in japan. I dunno if i would like to be the first person to try it on a car which hasn't been done because there are certain issues regarding strength and failures. if they do fail there could be quite devastating results. Try searching for some other ppl that may have done this mod before.

Hi Mike
Thanx for the reply. I have been told the balljoint is on the bottom side. Heres a link 2 a pic of the setup on the feroza http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/PHP_Modul ... hp?id=9812
I know of one guy who has done the spacer so i'll find out what he did and if hes had any problems or not.

Thanx again
