Suspension Arms & Diff Mounting

Wednesday, 23rd August 2011
Front Suspension Arms mounted with VZ Commodore modified knuckles, All the Arm joints have been filled with fibre reinforced filler, then sanded primed and 2 pak coated in gloss black.
The Knuckles are ceramic coated in Aluminium by HPC Performance Coatings.
All the fixings, bolts and nuts , have been ceramic coated in gloss black, the coating is far more durable than paint or powder coat.

Front Suspension Arms.
Custom CR upper and Lower Arms, VZ Knuckles.
Rear suspension Arms,
VE Commodore Rear Lower Control Arm, Front Lower Control Arm, Tie Rod, and Custom CR Upper Control Arm.
Original and new factory bolts and nuts, cleaned and HPC coated for a durable finish.











VE Diff mounted, 3.7:1 LSD












The original diff flange hits the handbrake cable mount, some discussion with club cobra members determined i had missed a step.
The manual details the fitting of a Ford BA flange.
Need to scour the wreckers.
