Posted 11 years 2 months ago #126826What it needs is someone to make custom arms where the ends can be sourced easily.. and swapped.. instead of buying new arms all the time..

Its not available.. for either F or TF..
You have to buy complete new arms... total joke aint it
I am going with M12 rose joints on custom made arms.. and swap the rose joints (McGill motorsport ones) every couple of years..

Posted 11 years 2 months ago #126830A company in Evesham
I supplied an original arm and an M12 heavy pattern rose joint from McGill and they did the rest
Originally they were going to cut the ball off and machine a thread into the factory arm.. but were worried about strength so made new arms and machined threads into these.. The wall thickness is 5mm or 7mm or something..
Find a local friendly engineering company and ask them for a price..
I need stainless spacers each side of the rose joint but will get these turned up by my local man
The rose joints will have rubber boots fitted..
Ok not a cheap option to start with.. but from now on I can just swap ends instead of keep buying arms..
