Our Road Race option consists of extra Bracing & larger welds for additional strength suitable for road racing. Also when purchasing the Road Race Spindles they do not come powder coated.
The OEM spindle is noted as a weak point by Griggs apparently. Some of the flex in the video can be written off as bushing compliance though. Anyway I think the Racecraft spindles would be kinda risky at best..as mentioned they're primarily drag racing oriented.
I agree somewhat..
I'd say almost all of this is bushing compliance, with the exception of the deflection on the strut to spindle mount.
Agreed, when I saw the 2" I lost interest as well. You would think that someone would introduce something proper to the market.
I won't argue that after re-watching a few times, the spindle flexes very little if at all (could just be from everything else moving around). It's just a bit unscientific to say the least. There have been failures of OEM spindles at the strut mount, but it's hard to say what the cause was; weak spindle or improper clamping load at the mount from strut bolts that have loosened (I'd lean towards the latter).
Well, this probably won't be anywhere near the Racecraft price point but...
