Help needed: Galant Knuckle vs evo1 knuckle.

[misterfixit]

Hi All,

I need a little help. Does anyone have, or can anyone get some pictures comparing Galant e39a knuckles and Lancer evo knukles.

I have some furtling to do on my latest project.

Cheers all.

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/idea.gif What are you up to? I know its been said fwd galant ones have the steering linkage at a different height which is good for lowered cars. Hopefully the Oceanic boys from the other side of the globe chime in. Awaiting results

I believe Evo 1-3 have 2g style hubs/knuckles. 1g and galant are pretty much the same just some minor differences as mentioned above.

Evo 1-3's have 1g/ galant style suspension in the front. Just to clarify.

The suspension on my drowned lancer is junk. I figured if I'm going to spend money on it I won't be replacing like for like.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Just discovered yesterday that Evo's and standard lancers don't share the same wings /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Lots of other things to fix first but getting sidetracked is fun..

Just for reference I looked into some Lancer vs EVO brake and suspension swap info recently.

As mentioned the EVO has unique bits from Lancer/Ralliart items. Didn't get into things too deeply, knowing I couldn't swap even calipers directly was enough at that point to push me/us in a different direction ( like back to the GVR4 platform LOL ).
