where? Tyler and I have a good working relationship. Your reading too far into it.

OP asked a question and I answered it as required for his application. As soon as I can find the info I will post it. Although I don't see how it applies here with the OP's needs.

I have used the AFX on many builds F,X and A's Do a search, I have been more than happy with the design.

No caps on my end.

looks like bearings will differ deoending on my rims size? its kind of baffles me that my whole adult life i bought tons of rims for pretty nice cars and never thought about any of this. Well i do now and guess i need to research the bearings subject now.

Not really but bearing life will be dependent on rim size. A larger heavier rim will cause premature wear as compared to a smaller lighter rim. The beauty thing when using a factory type spindle is you can preload,service re-lube and replace worn part cheaply if necessary.

The nice thing about this site is you have alot of talented and experienced members to help you out. I have learned alot myself on a daily basis.

ahhh by the way, have you spoken with Marcus yet? talk about learning a few things.

What exactly is the difference performance wise between the SC&C tall ball joint setup and the tall spindle?

For someone like the OP that is going to drive their car mainly on the street and possibly on the track once in a great while, would they really be able to notice much difference?

The statements from MrQuick have me thinking you probably won't...

I think one factor might be whether or not both solutions address bumpsteer. I think the AFX with their steering arms does, not sure about the tall balljoint. The AFX spindle will also let you bolt on low cost C5 brakes which helps offset their cost compared to the tall balljoint. I think you have to cost out the total solution before concluding one is significantly lower cost than the other.

Excellent response.
Don't take any of my posts as being negative feedback towards any product. Again it is a great product but in this case it would be as I felt "not necessary". I like to take every situation and make a recommendation based on needs and requirements of the user with the vehicle in mind.
I PM'ed the op as I refused to take it any further than advising him to contact the vendor in mind and he can then make an educated choice.
