pontoontodd Posted Thursday at 03:05 AM Author Share Posted Thursday at 03:05 AM Finally made more billet rear knuckles. Spent some time making these a little smoother/nicer than the first pair. One pair with tapped holes in the side for wheel scraper/caliper bracket and no wheel bearing holes for slammo. He is planning on using a different bolt on wheel bearing, I'll machine that when the time comes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pontoontodd Posted 13 hours ago Author Share Posted 13 hours ago B fit and tacked up a set of lateral links for the billet knuckle swap. I turned up some of the pieces for that and a couple of wheel bearing spacers. Sometime in the next month or so we plan on swapping out his rear diff and doing the billet rear knuckle conversion on his Forester. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slammo Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago Are you putting an R180 in the Forester? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was the same ratio we probably would but I think the 6MT low range swap is going to wait a while. We just tacked up all the links, we'll mock it up and see how the lengths work out. The R160 is a bit narrower than the R180 but those big front axles have quite a bit of plunge travel and not a lot of it is used in the rear.
