when removing the rear steering rack what if anything do i put in its place. on 3s cars they have an adjustable arm to replace it. click here does it make sense to have these on the gvr4?

You can either put nothing there (like a DSM rear), weld the bushings solid, or put those in.

I pulled my rear rack but didnt address what THEKID is talking about. Is that what most people do?

Whats to be gained by adding that delete kit?

Most people just pull the rear rack and call it good. Then it's identical to the DSM rear setup. Mine has been like this for years.

I've never seen those little arms for the 3s. Those are pretty sweet. I always wanted to weld the rear solid but it seemed a pain in the ass. I might have to try these out instead.

I wonder if this would tighten up the rear end much.

Im on a mission to make this car handle as well as possible with only being mildly offense to passengers.

Im not on a mission to send my passengers head into the ceiling... like some... Brian...

Those shouldn't do anything other than eliminate the passive rear toe while steering. I don't think passengers will feel it. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

I know they wouldnt feel it. Im just saying it would be part of the attempt to stiffen up the car as a whole.

Come on Snowflake, give me more credit than that. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hsugh.gif

i already welded in solid bushings and was just wondering if the 3s arms would make any difference.
