There both high clearence, but the 0 ackerman is desinged so both sides are turning the same as where the regular HC arms the inside tire turns slightly sharper.

If you plan on running BTA get the standard high clearance knuckles, unless you get KC Jones' bta link which is designed for zero ackerman knuckles. The VP zero ackerman knuckles and a traditional bta link with yield a lot of toe out. KC's bta is designed for zero ackerman.

Or do as I am currently doing, and make your own link. Fairly easy, just finished my proto last night.

Let us know how those work.....I went with the original LD's and stock Knuk's and always seem to have had alot of toe out. I like the four link plate that comes with it though.
