2008 Mexico GD3 to US GD3 Brake Swap
I'm working on swapping steering knuckles from a US model fit to my mexico version fit. I'm running into some geometry issues. The US knuckle is about an inch taller, so this forces some positive camber and the tie rods are a bit too long causing too much toe-in; more than can be adjusted for. Although I'm sure the camber issue doesn't help that.
I'm hoping someone can provide dimensions for the US strut and spring length. I'm thinking the shock body or mounting ears are placed differently. Also, dimensions for the tie rods would be greatly appreciated.
I'll post some pictures when I get the chance, but it looks promising so far.
