Ridetech OUT, 4 link Watts-link in.

[slammed68]

If your going to stalk me, please get your facts straight.
Your beating up on me!!!

I had issues with there tru turn, correct, it failed our very strict certification process here in NZ. I acknowledged the tru turn is a great concept, but yes the R&D process was flawed.
I ended up re-engineering there concept and got better than their claimed results, so the tru turn can work fantastic, but if you want it awesome, it needs to be custom engineered to your specific setup. Ride height plays the biggest part.
I originally bought there complete front and rear kits as I was new to car modification and blindly believed there xxx.
Now I have more confidence i'm re-engineering my rear.
"Cutting up" may have been an exaggeration on my part, given.
But there wont be any parts to sell, I will leave most of the cradle in for shock mounts and I will use the links if I can, and change to poly and heim joints for Jonny joints.
And I live in New Zealand, who's going to pay the frieght, would cost more than new parts.

I was unaware they had changed there top pick up points, so I guess the question is Why? Something wrong?
I'm going down a watts linkage path as its the one for me. Top arm length is always an issue in 1st gens, but my CAD simulations are coming along nicely

I didnt stalk you lol, I was apart of your post regarding the issues you experienced with the truturn setup. Your results were far from typical but you bashed them pretty good. Perhaps you had an out of spec part, perhaps your car or some of its components were out of spec. You mentioned ride height and ridetech is very specific about where the rideheight should be. Same thing with the 4 link, ride height can have a big effect on roll steer but they tell you where to set the ride height.

Regarding the changes to the upper links, my understanding is that they changed the mount position to lower the roll center. You would probably need to chat with them about the exact result of the changes or plug the specs into a calculator and see what the results are. They mentioned that there wont be much of an effect for street cars but autocross/road course there should be a small improvement.
