Knuckle Info/Exchange

Core Exchange Details
Cores must be in OEM condition (not modified), free of major damage (rust and/or pitting is ok) and must match the knuckles ordered (s14 for s14, s13 for s13 unless otherwise discussed)

 

Remove any extraneous parts from your knuckle cores (dust shields, hubs, nuts, bearings, sensors etc.)

 

We will not ship your new knuckles until we receive your core parts.

 

USPS flat rate is usually the cheapest option. S-chassis knuckles can fit in a medium flat rate box, take up excess room in the box so they don’t fly around and tear it open. Some extra tape on the seams is always a good idea too.


 

Ship to:

2905 Dyer Ave.
Sebastopol, CA 95472

 

PLEASE NOTE IN OR ON THE BOX SOMEWHERE SO WE KNOW WHO THEY'RE FOR

Thanks! :)


 

FAQ's
How much angle will I get with your knuckles?

We try to focus more on the steering feel and how fun it is to drive, rather than getting hung up on the numbers. Check out our Instagram for pics and vids of our parts being used.

 

Can you extend my control arms?

We don't offer control arm modification these days, at least on S-chassis since it isn't needed. We may offer this service for other chassis in the future.

 

Do I need to relocate my steering rack?

The short answer is no. It isn't needed but it can allow a bit more angle without the tie rods going over center. However, the ackerman ratio will change, which can affect the steering feel. We don't move our racks but some people do. At the end of the day, it comes down to preference and driving style. Experiment and see what works best for you!

 

Do you offer knuckles for any other chassis?

What you see on the site is what we offer currently. We have plans to develop more in the future but extensive testing is important. Keep a lookout on our IG for future products.
