Dat angle

ordered the 'angle kit' from SLR a few weeks ago, hoping I get them in sometime this week. Trying to make it in time for the first club loose event this year.


So do you need longer brake hoses with this kit?

Its great.. I'll let you know what rims work.

Full lock they're on the limit of travel (braided lines) if you bend the mount just a bit I feel they should be safe. Though I'd be happy with like a half inch longer.

This isn't full travel but still awesome angle

Yeah I don't think I'll have any issues. But I'll make sure to keep em clean.

Got the setup from a member for 1k shipped basically new. Should have some fun.

still going strong after 3 years of daily use.

Hm. That's good to hear I guess - I knew they were readily available online, but didn't know they last that long.

On a side note - it looks like SLR has started selling their angle kit sans fancy control arms for $550. Considering you can get e46 arms for $120ish you can save almost $500 bucks, which is pretty cool. I'm definitely tempted to get the angle 'block' now that this is an option... won't look forward to dropping my control arms again though

I don't think you have anything to be worried about, look at the offroad world, heim joints are used on everything. Not to mention that they are available in about any size and thread style. I used chromoly ones with Kevlar/nylon bushings on my jeep for the knuckle steering setup....still going strong after 3 years of daily use.

My concern is that dirt or something would get inside of the rod end bearing and start wearing away at the inner nylon or whatever's used inside of them. I guess the rod ends wouldn't be the biggest deal in the world if they wore out/broke from an impact - those can be ordered online. What I'd REALLY be concerned about breaking/bending/wearing out is the long, tapered bolts used for the 'ball joint' and tie rod. If SLR ever stopped making their kit, you'd be SOL on the tapered bolts.

I really don't see them breaking and not having other super bad problems, but you never know... you know? Tis why I try hard to use 'off the shelf' parts on my car.
