New Lollipops to eliminate the need to use 96+ M3 arms

[jrdeamicis]

I have on the mill right now new Lollipops that give proper caster for 5 lug swaps on stock e30 arms.

Price point is below the THR Eyeball arms.

There will be two versions ones for people who already have 96+ arms and ones for want to use E30 or 95 m3 Arms.

Feeler go!

how much closer to the first mounting bolt are these than the treehouse bushings

Well that is super secret. THREBA are E30 M3 Offset. Supposedly they are a TAD bit closer for a TAD bit more caster.

why is this super secret?

R&D people know how to keep secrets or they have to commute to China for work at the new McDonald's in Tiananmen Square.

My Q exactly.

We don't want the 3d CAD file to undo the guy's hard work.

The single measurement is enough to determine/satisfy us that these will do what he say's they will.

Besides, as soon as he sells one, they can be reverse engineered and sent to China anyway!!

damn I wish I hadn't sold my bed to make room for the boxes and boxes of 96+ m3 control arms I've been hoarding.

All this and a few other things is why there is just some shit you can't get anymore.

Who is going to spend time and money on R&D when the knock off sells for less than you can have it made six months after your brainchild hits the market?

These brackets should put the wheel @ proper E30 caster w/ a moderate drop. Other productions of the bracket will be designed for more drop to ensure best wheel placement.

If I sold these brackets for 50 bucks straight outta china would you strap them on your car?

I have seen a couple versions of lollipops out there from threaded rod w/ a monoball to THR. The mass production version of these will be a solid unit. The threaded rod mono-ball does not make it very ideal for street use.

I am making the brackets to pass them onto the community to save some time and money. Not to make shit tons of cash. I already have a job :)

The price point would be between 120-150. Also with the bracket you knock out two birds with one stone.

No need for the Offset LCAB and no need for the 96+ control arms. In consideration of how much E30 M3 stuff is and how expensive new control arms can get. $140 bucks seems pretty fair.

Its super secret!

I want a set when they are done.

[jrdeamicis]

I will let you know when they are ready for sale.

i guess a little toe out durring breaking or hard turns isnt gonna kill ya

[surebimmer]

Are you still working on these?

[jrdeamicis]

yup.

Part of the problem is as you increase the point for the LCA that the rear rim will start to catch the sway bar for cars w/ large tires / rims.
