REAR CONTROL ARMS
PREPARE THE ARMS
G1)
The control arms (3012) are shipped with the
runners left on. Some call these the
“gurfelmurgles”; all we know for sure is that we
purposely leave them on after molding to ensure
the arm keeps the proper spacing. They shrink as
they cool, and cooling goes on for several hours
when they are all confined together in a box after
molding.
We suggest you use pliers to twist the gurfelmurgle off with a circular motion. If
you cut them off with a wire cutter, you will leave an indentation in the end of the
arm, but twisting them off with pliers usually leaves the arm smooth. Then, dress
any flashing and you’re ready to go.
HUB CARRIERS ON THE ARMS
G2)
Check the Tuning Section and Set-Up sheet for
hub spacing. These instructions show the hub
spaced forward, so the shims are to the rear. The
X – 6 Squared Kit uses B44 hub carriers, but they
are put on the arms opposite so the camber link is
close to straight. We will do the left arm first, with
the right hub, marked “R.”
