  • Today we threw on some some of my parts to get this Lexus project going. Shortened and tilted spindles to not only lower the car more but add camber. It’s just the beginning to this crazy build.

    The secret to get the front upper ball joint castle nut back on is jacking up the spindle so it puts pressure on the ball joint and It'll stop spinning enough you can tighten it with out air tools. ;-)

    that piece of metal is called perforated plumbers tape. Plumbers use it, for example, to hang pipes under houses.

    Yo what’s up with the cutting a window in the strut mount because of the spindles I thought shortening them avoids that?

    • @OCTANEANDZIPTIES
      @OCTANEANDZIPTIES  ปีที่แล้ว

      Correct, shortened spindles is what’s necessary. Never cut a hole in the front strut towers😢

    When you shorten your spindles in the front what can you do to the back of the car to go lower in the rear even more if maxed out?

    • @OCTANEANDZIPTIES
      @OCTANEANDZIPTIES  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      At that point, shorter springs OR different (shorter) coilover struts

  • @ChromeCowboyGaming

    Does tilting the spindles end up adding negative camber? If so how much. Also did you end up having to cut the top of the strut tower or was shortening the spindles enough to keep it from hitting.

    • @OCTANEANDZIPTIES
      @OCTANEANDZIPTIES  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Shortening the spindles ends up bringing the upper control arm down so it doesn’t hit the frame what so ever. Also, I tilted them and that’s what gives the camber (tilted for -10 degrees). If you just shorten them, you won’t add negative camber, if anything maybe 1 or two degrees of natural. Hope that helps

    • @ChromeCowboyGaming
      @ChromeCowboyGaming 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Octane and Zip ties Appreciate the quick reply! How much did you tilt yours in millimeters? Asking because I’m having a buddy tilt a set for me but I wasn’t sure how much I should do. Looking for roughly -10

    I'm new to the ls400 game and was wondering what is the purpose of shortened spindles? Plan on lowering mine was wondering if it's something I have to have.

    • @OCTANEANDZIPTIES
      @OCTANEANDZIPTIES  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To a certain point you can only go so low before the upper control arm starts to slap and hit the frame/top area. Shortened spindles are to not only go lower (air out lower if bagged) but also help with not having them hitting anything. If you’re looking for camber you would get shortened and tilted spindles

      Yes fenders are rolled. Before you do anything you need to tuck both side wiring harnesses before you run thru them and the car is worthless. Tilted spindles are made to spec. I made mine for -14 just frim the spindles
