Default Sage Front Rca?

Id like know where i can get a Sage Front Rca. I tried the Megan racing 30mm and there was just way to much play where it sits i just didnt feel stable or safe. i feel like it would wobble even if i tightened them down all the way.

Did you do an alignment after you installed the megan, because you have to align the vehicle right after because it will change the cars alignment.

If you did the alignment and still not happy with the rca. You can cut the rca down if your good with an angle grinder, and have a caliper to measure the thickness.

Nah i didnt even go through with the install. just where the Block sits on the Lower control arm on those 2 Grooves theres just way too much movement like it rattles when i jiggle it. and the block itself has grooves where the rotor/knuckle will rest into and it would not go in. i dont see even tightening this down would eliminate the movement. theres just too much play for me to comfortably install this and not worry about it being all wobbly.

Is this what you purchased? Do not worry about it being unstable, as this is only a spacer setup. The actual strength is in the bolts! Once torqued properly the setup will be tight and strong, just make sure to blue loctite the bolts generously.

I actaully made my own rca out of washers, and its been perfect for many many (10 years now) years now. No wear issues on the tires, and I reused the oem bolts. I just didnt go 30mm, maybe 15-20mm. Because I used washers, I do not have the grooves that fit into the knuckles.
