(Picture is of Standard Left Hand Kit, Right hand kits will have both arms with 2 rod end holes)

Nice work Sean!

dose that bolt on to the brake caliper bolts

Does this fix the problems many face when going SPOA?
If so, top job, hopefully we will be seeing far less dodgy Z links.
Well done sean! Cheap as chips

what's the difference between this and the merc arms? It's just as geto fab, as the caliper bolts we not ment to have a steering force put on em I wouldn't like to be driving down the hwy and have the bolts snap out

Read up and see if you can find any failures with this type or the merc arm setup. I've done a fair bit of research into high steer kits and apart from replacing the full knuckle with a snake item this is the next best thing...Have you looked at how beefy the brake caliper bracket is? and the size of the bolts used to hold the arm on? I think you'd be hard pressed to find anything stronger in this type of setup.

The Rocky Road ones utilise the brake caliper as well as the 4 king pin bolts. It seems a very good design...

all we need now is some right hand vitara (sidekick) steering wedges and we would be all set over here

Do you think there may be a reason for all that beef? and I bet it wasn't a few Suzuki engineers over engineering a part to allow for future aftermarket modifications.

Other than the fact that its part of the most crucial system on the vehicle and over engineering is a good thing, I'm not sure what you're trying to say???

I don't have to say anything, you just explained it very well .

Roger that

my custom made steering picks up the calipers and kingpin as well as the existing stock arm... i tried finding pics but cant for the life of me find them.

I managed to break a steering box output shaft when I clipped a stump in the grass on the side of a track pulling a bout 40km/h, my zook was running a rocky road ott arm that picks up the brake bracket and king pins.
we ckecked the entire front end afterwards no damage apart from steering box shaft.
so they can be really tough if done properly.

like ajsr's experience, there is a car in town here with a broken steering box output shaft. i was disgusted when i heard this had happened and this is the second case that i have heard of. therefore what would it matter if your drag link is bolted to your brakes if it is going to break the output shaft first. $219au is a god send for a reliable hi steer setup. how about we encourage people to buy them instead of bagging the product and we can do away with some of the bootyfab setups that are running around

It looks like a good setup, next to a Z link etc its a farking great setup.
I dont think Ive ever seen any shit stuff from lowrange anyway.
anyway who's to say the snake one is any good? the casting could be shit and then your depending on that pissy cast arm, and I know someone on here had drama's with the machining being way out on their snake job.

i can vouch for the snake hub being good had no dramas at all installing it and worked great , but it isn't full histeer as the tie rod is still in the original postion , unlike these ones that are both out of the way .
