What do we need all this angle for?

P.S. your sig would be badass, except the coupe looks like an old cavalier.

More angle is better. I think it decreases steering input too....?Some super steering angle action pics.

I am wondering if this decreases steering input? Or would i have to turn the wheel like five times to get fifty degrees?

ya if your just using them on a street car i dont really see the point of having more angle. if your tracking it then its a different story but for the street kinda pointless thats my 2 cents.

Ikeya Formula parts are top notch. It's one of the best companies out there.

Is this what you ended up going with? Did you get inners and outers from them?

NOT.

the balljoint shaft is tapered. you cant just "drill" it out.

god forbid anyone would support a company that makes the stuff.

i have the full PSM knuckle kit with ikeya inners, moog s14 outers, PSM rack spacers, etc.

my lock is retarded.
