Guldstrand mod ??

[trapin]

I was just passing by and had some spare change in my pocket. Thought I'd commit $.02 to the pot, if you don't mind.

First off....some clarification is in order. The Guldstrand Modification improves 'negative camber gain' not 'caster'. 2 different things.



I went over this whole Guldstrand Mod, Camber, Caster, coilovers, UCA, DSE Arm, discussion with Kyle Tucker over a year ago. This is what the man told me. As far as the Guldstrand Modification is concerned....it is not needed with his control arms. Also...if you do the Guldstrand Modification with the stock arms on a street car, the only difference you will notice will be in your tire wear. It is mostly a modification done for competitive reasons. It is not noticed driving up to the corner for more diapers and baby formula. Jeff Trush has the DS&E arms on his car without the Guldstrand Modification and without a coilover setup and he tells me his car handles like it is on rails. So that is the direction I am going to take.

- Forget the Guldstrand Mod (not needed).
- Upper Control Arms from Global West
- Leave the stock lower arms with Hotchks Springs and Koni Shocks
- 2 parts tequila
- 3 parts tequila mix
- no salt...on the rocks.
