X6 Sq E-speed hangers

[bronco]

I mounted the E-speed hangers (low) but only to find the turnbuckles being too long.

Did you also shorten your buckles or did you use the outside hole on the rear knuckles. Using the outside hole, does it change alot opposite using the center hole ?

Second, how do you mount the ballstud on the rear knuckles : at rear or at the front of the knuckle ?

Thanks

Use outside holes on your hubs, you may still find the turnbuckle is a little long though. I use shorter turnbuckles on mine.

You need to put the left hub carrier on the right hand side of the car and the right one on the left.

The turnbuckle should be mounted to the back of the hub carrier

Switching these hubs does it prevent the ball cup from rubbing the inside of the wheels, because this is also something I noticed?

Thanks Body Paint

Yes it does.

The X-6 build instructions do tell you to build the car with the hubs switched, but it is not very clear and can easily be missed.

Thanks for the help Body Paint. Everything fits now without grinding. I also used shorter turnbuckles. Going to test run it on sunday. I'll post some pics in the X6 photo topic.

I'm going to order some lunsford rear camber links, what size do i need ? i will be using RPM ball joints and E-speed hangers.

Mate go for JConcepts ball ends instead

They are just as good and smaller which means your wheel wont rub so much and if your running an anti roll bar it wont rub as much

Ive bought the following to get round this!

AE FT 35mm x2 (For inside hole on hub-indoors)
AE FT 48MM x2 (For outside hole on hub-outdoors)
You could even go for 45mm here but they didnt have any in stock when i ordered. 48mm fit fine ou just need to wind them right down and will run -1 camber fine!

The main problem is with the standard b4 rear turn buckles as youve found out is there too long! I tried cutting them down a bit but bent one in a race landing hard due to the limited amount of thread which was inside the ball ends. Do the job properly its worth it in the end!
