After an extended delay, I've put the car on the ground with the newly extended LCAs.
I was worried about how far I could extend the arms, so I erred on the conservative side with 15mm.
I'm not disappointed with my decision, but if I were to do it over, I'd go a little further.
Looks pretty ok.
I haven't messed with the top mounts yet, so this is basically max camber with the stock top mounts and gives you a feeling for just how much further I could push the wheel out without fouling the arch.
And before anyone asks how I can turn this low, I'll just show you.
From the front (on the steering stop)
From behind (on the steering stop)
Plenty of room.
I have yet to get a caster measurement, but the 5mm forward I moved the wheels still clears the arches and isn't noticeable from a distance. When you put a tape or ruler on it, you can see that it's scootched forward a smidge. I don't expect anyone will notice, much less say anything.
Somehow, my car with very limited electrical bits has killed the battery whilst it's been stored these past few weeks. So in addition to collecting a replacement battery, I need to install a master cut-off switch. Both should be very straightforward affairs.
I'm working on Dad's Volvo again this weekend, so I have to keep the 911 roll-able...and my shocks still haven't shipped. So I'm b@lls deep in cleaning and rearranging my garage. I may even take a picture once it's less chaotic.
You know...unless the world ends today...because...reasons...
