There seems to be alot about the RCA topic , I have just finished rebuilding a sprinter front end with the pug/hulux/corona whatever that crappy place in richmond in victoria calls it brake conversion , And i have seen a problem with this conversion , and a few other conversions like ra60 brake/strut .
the ball joint end of the arm hits the disc !!!!!!!!
And i cannot believe what the workshop had done , smashed in the end of the arm with a hammer .
But anyway back to the problem , the negative offset on the struts used in this conversion is not a problem ! just use different longer arms / camber tops etc , but the real problem lies in the steering if the car has power steering , yes the jap spec power steering arms make the steering lock more with non powersteer racks etc etc , but if the car has to have powersteer , then the non strut offset on the steering arms make the arm closer to the disc again , plus you loose the camber , then you are back to where you started .
So what about a RCA with two positions to overcome this problem with all these various struts used , anyone can make a RCA but i haven't seen a decent one to accommodate all these strut brake / combinations ..
Maybe i should rephrase this , there are one type available i have seen for nissan strut conversions that have the same problem , i think in like a r31 strut to datto 1600/stanza type thing ! they have these alloy RCA that two piece and are adjustable though a range from lower bolts , i have only seen these a datto speed shop , and have no idea how they work and if they would ever be road legal . There where price at like $300 so i dont really want to buy a set to see .
