05 Sti cradle to GC8 body, which c-arms?
Hey all, i really need some help with a problem i ran into this weekend. for reference im doing a full sti swap to GC8
below is what i have (that is in question)
00 RS GC8 chassis
05 STI front cradle
V6 STI aluminum control arms
whiteline RACE Anti-Lift Kit
Proflex (i think thats them) front CA bushings (same dimensions as stock, just stiffer urethane)
My control arms with the ALK on it will not fit at all. I could possibly mill a slot into specific areas to accomodate. id rather not because it is so far off. but i switched to the STOCK V6 STI rear conrtol arm mounts and it was CLOSER, not good enough to work, but closer.
can someone help me out as to what the hell i have to use to get my existing CAs to work? i suppose i could buy GDB ones, but once again, rather not. id also like to keep the ALK, but i dont see how it would be possible. any one run into this issue with an 05 front cradel?
