I've been designing these in the background for some time and am at the stage where I'm looking at numbers for a first batch.
These are solidly moutned top mounts so are harsher than the rubber items but cannot be bettered for solid location of the strut (with stock suspension hardware anyway).
They are offset by 7.5mm, giving 0.75degrees more castor or camber (useful for lowered vehicles as it reduces the effect of the wishbone arc inducing negative camber). They can also be set to give any proportion of camber and castor correction in the rotation available.
I have specced silly oversized bearings for these with the aim of making them bullet-proof, the bearings are replaceable from a stock size and cost about £70 for the pair from the supplier!
Price is looking at about £225 a pair, delivered, but can be specified with different bearings to save approx. £25 (I'lll assess both types to see how they're affected.
I am also working on a rear strut brace solution that ties in with these at the rear of a coupe / 90q, cost is looking like £350 at a guess (for top mounts, brackets and bar) but this is speculatitve at the moment as it's still on the drawing board. Not cheap I grant you but no welding, cutting or bolt holes in the rear strut towers and it will not encroach into the rear load space anywhere near as much as current solutions. It will also be high quality anodised aluminium billet, CNC machined and the strut bar will be designed to be chromed at an extra cost if required (stock finish will be powdercoat).
I will be getting a test batch of these made and will run them for a bit to test, I also have a few beta testers lined up to get a more thorough test program sorted.
Post below if you're interested.
