JHS would know this....

Also T3 ones are made for JDM rears right? Might be worth asking AJPS

T3 are made for jdm rear.

I think that you might be able to modify them David? Thats what i have heard anyway.

they aren't T3 items

from memory its the bottom diff bolt hole that needs to be elongated to fit.

meh i'll just assume they are JDM items i guess :P

i won't be modding them as i don't need them, Adjustable 4 link corrects my pinion angle ;)

increases traction (derr)

changes the pinnon angle on lowered cars

theyre not really used to ajust the pinnion angle. though the do affect it slightly.

its to get the lower arm flat or pointing down on a lowered car, so the arm is on a reducing radius, and there for making the diff "roll" against the direction off wheel movement, which causes the rear end to bounce/hop.

so will traction brackets help with getting traction or make the diff not move as much hence letting the wheels spin easier?
