    yeah not physically. but if you think about a car with a shorter strut, and an rca, compared to a stock length strut, and no rca. the overall length of the assembly should be similar, only the stub axle is higher.. or "moved up".

    Ah, well, if he meant in that context, fair enough.

    Technically, that would be moving the car down though

    yes i guess you are right, the stub axle never really moves if you think about it like that.

    anyway all this talk about moving the stub axles is making me think of drop spindles, and low luxs, so can we stop? please.

    slydar: agreed, getting ideas about drop spindles on the crown aswell

    streets: also agreed, but he was talking about using RCA's to dial out bump steer, they dont, they return it to factory and thats it, hence my above comments
