As above,anyone got a set of adjustable top mounts fitted to their cossie please?
Can you give me an idea on prices for the parts and where to get them from?
Would this be a worthwhile mod for a road car as I have been told it will make the car a little more stable at high speeds.
I am looking into this before I go out and buy them.
Any input would be great.

Many thanks.Lee.

 

Anyone got these fitted on a road car and are they of any advantage on a road car?

Thanks.Lee.

 

I have them on my Escort Cosworth & they are great got them from MK Motorsport

 

thanks paul
have you any pics of them please cant find any

Alright Paul.In what respect would you say they were that much better than a standard set up?Obviously they are adjustable.How does the car compare before and after?I would be very interested to know.Thanks.

Pics would be helpful if possible as per pm Mark.

Many thanks.Lee.

 

The turn in feels a lot better & seems more stable

 

Paul,thanks for the info and pic.How do you manage with the strut brace,can one not be fitted with the top mounts?
How long would it take to fit these top mounts Paul?

Thanks.Lee.

 

HI LEE
a brace can be fitted no problem ,fitting time i would say couple hrs

Would love a strut brace Mark
Lee yes these take about 2 hrs to fit & the quality of these is second to none
i love em

 

good info Mark.

Paul Great info,who fitted them for you? I take it you then went and got the geometery set up once fitted yes?

Thanks.Lee.

 

Yes mate infinity-racing did the fitting & set up

 

How much of the strut tower needs chopping off ?
And are these the same for EsCos and Sierra
cheers

Interested, but just folked out for an uprated clutch this morning

 

I hope this helps

Paul

 

These look good, but wondering what options there are for adjustable top mounts that can leave the turrets standard/or just drilled?

 

Also I believe some tyres of strut top bearing alter the weight of the steering too?
The axial load ball bearing for example?

 

I was thinking the same myself. any pics of them.

 

do these MK mounts fit GAZ, GAH coilovers.

 

I've now got a set of Rally Design top mounts fitted under standard turrets. Only need 3 holes drilled, no chopping. Added a good bit of camber and castor too.

 

any pics ade?

 

Here you go. Now been adjusted to run slightly more castor and slightly less camber though since this photo....

 

Got a link to them Ade ?

 

Do you know what your actual settings are Ade for caster and camber?

 

No idea, lol!
Easy enough to set them equal for both sides with this type of top mount though... and I know it still can happily take a bit more camber and castor from my experience with my drift Saph.
I'll be adding another couple of parts before going to get all the geometry figures checked.

 

I bought these ones Kev.... (and they arrived in black!)

real noob question here but if you dont ask you wont learn what is the point of these is it just to camber the front wheels ?

 

More camber = more grip in cornering
More castor = better steering self centering (very useful in drift). Also increases grip to an extent too.

 

Thanks ade, i was looking at them the other day, good price. Another question mate. what suspension do you have on the front? coil overs or std GAZ or other. Lastly do you know what P.C.D the hole centers are.

 

The holes to mount the strut tops? There's tons of them, I know that!
But I took the chance to have the strut brace fitted at the same time so I didn't end up with any wrong/extra ones drilled...

On Gaz Golds.

 

Thanks Ade

 

Like the fact you didn't cut the strut tops, what did you do do the mark the three holes, presume your holes are very important to get a base location right ??

 

I gave 'em to a garage and they dealt with that headache! lol

Can't imagine it would be that tricky in all seriousness though. Mark the holes from underneath with all the suspension removed.

 

Anyone here fit there own top mounts or have a fitting guide ???

Surely fast ford or pf have done one ?

 

I also would like a guide on how these fit if anyone has one?
