New upper control arm design.

Buy a trailer or a car dolly.
I have a car trailer, the Goblin can't get onto it without 20' long ramps and what fun would that be anyway. So the new arms should be in on Tuesday, as of last week $40 a side for the uppers without rod ends.

For sure toe in will kill a set of tires quick.
Back to day dreaming...

Dale, if it weren't for our conversations and trading of ideas, I would be building a really boring and run of the mill Goblin. :cool: Your inspiration to think outside of the box and try something different definitely made me think of the modifications and improvements that can take a good kit to the next level towards being a great build that meets all of my expectations for uniqueness and sensibilities for safety. This forum needs your inputs - please continue to participate when your sage advice is needed.

This is a pretty common and proven practice for adding camber adjustment to double wishbone setups... I think this is what he's suggesting?

I'm pretty sure he's intending to run heim joints at all ends (as we currently have) in which case the only bending load that exists would be resultant from resistance within the bearings which is pretty negligible. If the heim joints weren't setup correctly or lock-nutted at the limit of their travel, then they'd bottom out and impart a bending load which would be very bad.
