GT350 rear adjustable toe link options revisited??

[FogCitySF]

Was wondering if there are any other options I'm not aware of that people are using for adjustable rear toe links on their GT350? I know both BMR and Steeda offer their own components. The BMR ones look quite heavy. Any feedback on these or other options? Thx in advance.

I made my own from two 3/4" rod ends and an 1-1/8" diameter aluminum tube with 3/4" right and left hand threads. I set these to stock lengths.
I have about $150.00 in materials and since my dad owns a machine shop the labor is free. But you can also buy the aluminum tube already cut to length and threaded for cheap.

I was hoping CorteX was going to have them available by now but I don't see them.

Interesting...was this something planned by CorteX? If so then maybe worth the wait.

Nothing specific from CorteX but I know Filip wants to make more parts for our cars. With Filip getting an R that should motivate him.

I've spoken to filip many times about parts for our cars and he has no plans and only pitched the mag ride controller.

We do carry the J&M Toe Links which are a great value at $190. The weight is 7 pounds for the pair so basically they weight the same as stock but allow you to correct the toe changes more accurately than a cam bolt. They are made from steel due to the loading they see because if one broke it would end badly.

I'm a dork. I'm so sorry for the confusion. I totally misread this thread, my previous post was that I made my own vertical links from two rod ends and a aluminum sleeve.
For some dumb reason I was reading vertical links not toe links.
I'll post pics later today when I get home.

Di you know how much the stock toe links weigh?

The stock toe links have the cams and are super easy to adjust so not sure why you would change them. Now the camber is not easy and that's where I think there would be interest for an adjustable link.

I have the weights of every suspension part on our gt350/R. Front and rear if anyone wants any other weights. I weighed everything when I removed all my suspension.

Once you start adding negative camber in the rear, it's not that easy to get the toe perfectly in spec. My BMW M3 had the same issue as the rear suspension design is similar (and also had an eccentric cam for some toe adjustment)....camber influences toe and adjustable rear toe links can be a time saver for independent adjustment.

Actually I think my weight is incorrect (going off my data sheet) I believe the BMR pieces are 7 pounds / pair. I will confirm that and correct my post.

Corrected my original post.

Full Tilt Boogie makes a set as well but they're the most expensive of the bunch.

Thanks! Liking the fact that they're made of aluminum.
