Need help with fonzie products.

[Troopermaniac]

Either im the only guy in the world that runs my Baja with sym steer and stock arm length or im missing something here. It seems Fonzie only makes extended arm, non extended arm, and sym steer with extended arm versions of their turnbuckles.

Which one do I get?

If you have stock A-arms RPM or original, then you need stock length. I have the other 2, extended and extended sym steer.

Aight im just a bit worried because these turnbuckles are expensive and I have to adjust the ball ends farther out because the sym steer is smaller then stock.

Ive just had a quick check and the standard set up is 55mm space between the rod ends.

The Bonesteer I have uses an FG steering thing and that’s about 30mm between rod ends.

So your arms will need to be 12.5mm longer than standard.

I’ve just measured them and the standard arms are about 120mm eye to eye, the Fonzie extended arms are 140mm and the extended sym steer arms are 155mm.

I don’t think any will be a perfect fit for you. You could try the extended arms but you have to mount them further in-board and you could be in danger of the rod ends touching as they are massive.

Yeah I tried emailing detroit but they haven't gotten back to me yet. I might have to skip fonzie if I cant get the correct size for my setup. Im surprised they don't have a sym steer size for standard but I guess not allot of people who buy them run standard anyway. I remember the dude who makes the IRCs say he makes turnbuckles. I should shoot him an email.

Give Fruitbat a shout, he makes that stuff as well.
