[QUOTE="ac427cobra, post: 12243802, member: 6247"] I just wanted to inform the Cobra IRS owners here that we've developed a new part for the IRS. We now have an eccentric rear camber adjusting bolt for the IRS. We did this for a few reasons. The Ford OEM bolt had a tendency to strip the knurl off of the bolt and the eccentric and the bolt would sometimes separate. In addition, this replacement bolt is no longer available from Ford. So we decided to manufacture them. We also made some improvements to it as well. Here is a photo of the OEM bolt in the slot of the UCA. Notice how much smaller the eccentric washer is compared to the width of the slot: [IMG]http://www.fulltiltboogieracing.com/images/eccentric%20bolt%20OEM.JPG[/IMG] Here is our new replacement part FT 1050. Notice how the larger diameter eccentric cam fills the entire width of the slot: [IMG]http://www.fulltiltboogieracing.com/images/eccentric%20bolt%20FTBR.JPG[/IMG] Also notice the TIG welding which will hold these parts together infinitely tighter than the press fit OEM parts. This photo shows the increased thickness of the eccentric cam washer: [IMG]http://www.fulltiltboogieracing.com/images/eccentric%20bolt%20comparison%20THICKNESS.JPG[/IMG] In order to take full advantage of this new increased off-set in the eccentric, it will require making the slot in the UCA a bit longer. Here is how much longer it needs to be: [IMG]http://www.fulltiltboogieracing.com/images/eccentric%20washer3.jpg[/IMG] You can use a carbide burr on a drill, a Foredom tool or larger Dremel. If the UCA is off the car and you have access to a milling machine that would be your best choice. We hope to have a video soon showing the incease in rear camber adjustment available with this new part. Stay tuned. :thumbsup::coolman::beer: [/QUOTE]
