anyone having issues with figs' toe arm at all with lowered car? I looked through the spoke and, as it's sitting, the angle is already at the max. I'm wondering if you guys insert the bolt to the hub assembly in the opposite side instead of the top.

cant really picture the problem in my head. PICS!

i installed my rear toe arm just like how my OE one was installed. Made sure its at the most negative position (near center for the OE adjustment)

Pics Sam? It should have enough misalignment to roll up on the spacer, or top nut.
Call me I should be free for a few.

This is how it looks when it's sitting.

Get under the car and turn the toe arms by hand. So from the picture above, if you are able to turn the toe arms clockwise without anything loosening up, then nothing is wrong. It's only bad when both rod ends are binding in opposite direction. Kinda hard to describe

Sam, the rod end is "rocked" to one side, its not at its limit. When tightening all the jam nuts, everything should be centered, It may shift slightly during use, but this is normal.
The radius portion of the top nut is designed to allow the rod end to travel on it so it looks fine to me, just rocked to one side.

I made sure that each end is perpendicular to each other and also made sure that there is equal distance of movements on each sides as it sits. The only problem here is lateral movements (specifically up, when you hit a bump -- when the top of the nut on the ends gets hit.)

Yes, I'm aware of that aspect. But take a look at the slope. There is a possibility that I may invert it... the toe arm would be close to zero slope.

hmm i still dont understand how anything can hit the rear toe arm.

Did you tighten the ball joint thing all the way tight?

Nothing is hitting the toe arm... I'm concerned with the maximum movement of the joints. As you can see, the slope of the toe arm is greater as you get lower. It's near the top bolts as it sits.
