Marco's failed up at croft, could have been quite nasty, can't remember the exact reason, but it looked like the ball joint had come loose, just have a word with marco, to make sure they are safe mate, I 'think' marco had them modified.

Hi bud


yes that is true one of them did fail (the passanger side ) and that was because the nut at the front of the arm came lose , then it acted like a sliding hammer which then pulled the rose joint clean out of the treads

i had the rose joint sleve made 20mm longer with a 20mm spacer

now it still needs 5mm taken off to fit them inside of the tube





i still rate them as they dont move and they are metal to metal you cant go wrong

i know you wont be able to get much camber on them but you can get a bit which is better than nothing

the problem with the zoo arms is they are great coz they dont move but what that means is it puts more force on the arms itsself.
the std ford arm apparently have huge twisting force resistance because of their pressed shape where as any tubed arm just cant match the same twisting force.
i had fiesta freny arms which are std with rose joints and they took some abuse with no worries at all.
there is nothing to come undone on them
