Re: New Rear Uprights Hi Ray, Veek,
The pictures of the new Rear Upright show the functionality of the part but not the final dimensions.
The production part moves the hub upwards in relation to the ground, effectively increasing shock travel by almost 1". Good news for sure. This was a bonus side effect of reducing the rate of camber change in bump.
So you get a stronger, lighter, cooler running (and looking) part with increased coil-over travel and improved suspension geometry. It will be come set to use with the stock or the Revised Lower A-Arms a lot of guys have already.
To get the price down there will be an exchange credit for your used uprights. Rebuildable parts will get overhauled and put into a stock upright exchange program and save you dough on the racey bits.
The New Rear Uprights will come to you finished in either Black, Aluminium or Magnesium Cast paint, base and clear coated. If you send your rear uprights assemblies with hubs only (no brakes please) you will get the new ones with hubs and NEW SKF Bearings properly installed and pre-loaded ready to go back on the car. This is an instock program so turn around time will be 2>3 days. Deliveries start in January.
The New Rear Uprights cost 1,295.00 each with a 300.00 exchange credit for each of your rebuildable uprights, so 995.00 each + S&H.
If your don't already have the Revised Lower A-Arms and buy them with the New Rear Uprights as a package you'll save 10% off the 1,500 price of the a-arms, net 1,350 pair for the arms.
This part, just like the revised lower a-arms and new ZF transaxle bracket make a huge improvement to an already excellent vehicle. Our goal is to bring the handling performance level in line with the ridgid stainless monocoque chassis, outstanding interior trim and of course the fabulous body shape.
Cheers
