Can i see a pic of the pillow upper mount??? im confused where it goes and where its located..

 

anybody?!?!?!

 

oh....my....friggin.....gosh

 

Jordo,

It'll will kill your shocks very quickly on the street.

Also if you have to ask questions like this you're not ready for Tein RAs.

It replaces the stock shock hat.

 

the pillowball mount just mounts right onto where the old bushing was. actually under but the bolts will poke under and out.

 

just show me pics guys, my Teins came on the car, when i bought it...



what does that adjust??!?!


thats probadly somethign with brakes???! right? let me go look outside real fast ...

front

rear

hope this helps, btw this is the HA and upperpillowball mounts but no difference...

 

Pillowball mounts don't adjust camber.

Camber plates do, but not on cars with double wishbone suspension.

Adjustable upper arms are the preferred way of changing camber.

Short of buying adjustable upper arms, you can adjust camber by changing ride height.

 

thats all iw anted to know. who makes camber plates?? skunk2 and....

 

damn u guys need to relax....

jordo the pillow ball mount in at the very top of the coilover. the metal disc that sits on top of the coilover...that line that you circled in the pic is the brake line, it doesn't adjust anything

 

Reread what I wrote.

You're looking for adjustable upper arms.

Try King Motorsports or Skunk2 (same thing either way).

 

I agree.

Lose the attitude, Jordo.

 

Sweet mother of God!

Put your hands up and step away from the car.

That bolt will 'adjust' the brakes. Turn it fully counterclockwise and you have no braking power.

 

thanx alot man....

about the brakes. thats what i thought, its just green and, on my friends coilovers it adjust his damping, i didnt know what it would do in my case.. since my damping control is on top of the strut..

 

i was aggravated by the feedback i was gettin, exactly what you told me is what i thought at 1st, then my friends told me i needed camber plates.then i started asking about who makes them, then someone told me pillow mounts adjust camber (from what i understood)...

 

very sorry guys!!

 

so pillowball mounts aren't streetable?

 

They are but they'll wear out your shocks faster, make ride quality a lot worse and transfer a lot more road noise into the cabin.

Any gains you will get from the pillowball mounts will only be noticeable on the track.

 

Why should Jordo lose the attitude when he asks a question, and then instead of a helpful response, get's negative, unhelpful comments from Mario?

 

Could it be...hmm...Chris Sartor writing this? Nope...can't be him. One grammar mistake....

I knew it, it's his mom.

 

Please, take no offense to this Jordo, but you need to read and learn a lot more before you turn any bolts on that car. Some of the questions you are asking worry me, especially when the systems you are referring to are safety systems, such as brakes and suspension. A mistake in these systems can be costly on the road, and not only money.

p.s. That looks like an awful lot of oil on that lower control arm. Hopefully not from the damper...
