Awesome!

To keep everybody up to date,...

These knuckle weights will work with:
Axial brand hi clearance knuckles
VP brand hi clearance knuckles (Axial and Berg)
VP brand zero ackerman knuckles (Axial)

Is anybody really running anything else?

Sounds good. They are all out and being tested now. Not too much to test so these should be avail as soon as these guys get a tiny bit of time on them.

Chevdog · 02-16-2011, 11:38 PM

looks bad ass, might have to get a set when they become available. It would be nice to be able to adjust weight without taking the tire off the rim.

Pls, put me on the list

I'm using axial hi-clearence things
Just waiting for Brian's report on stock wheels

kmnss · 02-16-2011, 11:42 PM

Thanks for the chance!

In.

Been looking for Knuckle weights to go on my SSS-R with BWD Vertex wheels for a while now. Makes my crude "lead on the axle" weights look even worse.

This looks like just what I need to finish off my fastback! Whenever these are available, consider me in.

Goatsniper · 02-19-2011, 12:13 AM

Man those are sweet. Glad some one finally figured out a way to do it and make it easy to adjust.

Knuckle weight really aren't a new idea, but these are the first to fit VP knuckles. That's why I got them, and the machine work on these is incredible! Absoluely a top notch product!

KC_JoNeS · 02-20-2011, 10:43 PM

I am in for a couple sets of these...I run only VP zero ackermann knuckles.

Yep. A lot of us run Felsenfest knuckles. Have you tried to fit the to felsenfests to see if they can be dremeled to fit?

I have not.

Looks like they are pretty thick around the bearing area? If somebody has a set and a pair of calipers I could measure the difference.

these knuckle weights are the best thing i've done to my car it drives smoother lot more wheel speed over performance is excellant

4xFord · 02-21-2011, 01:28 PM

There's no way they will work on felsenfest knuckles, but those knuckles are designed for their own knuckle weight system.

JeremyH · 02-21-2011, 01:36 PM

King of the knuckle weights! What's next, TLTs??

Seriously...TLTs.

bubbaskyjacker · 02-21-2011, 03:07 PM

You know, I forgot about that

Did Egressor make them or was it somebody else?

Aggie01 · 02-24-2011, 08:15 PM

Egressor makes weights for his knuckles. I don't think you will be able to run as much weight as with this system. Unless you fab up some rings yourself.

khwilliams · 02-25-2011, 10:22 AM

People are surly going to need the Gunnar *BEEF TUBES* with these in place!

still a great idea either way

I dont see it making much difference actually. Just moving weight from one place to another, not really adding it. Or, am I missing what you meant?

Testing went great. I hope to have some cut and shipping by late next week.
