Is any RUCA interchangable between the s13 and s14?

First I'd write her name then carve a plus,

I seen her yesterday but still I had to let her pass

Nothing to contribute.... but love this album

yeeeeah, right on hypertek, we got some old school rap cats in the building!

ghettokracker, i was answering yes, in the form of "finish the lyric," excuse the lame creativity.

this has been covered numerous times, it is interchangeable. if you have s13, buy s13, if you have s14, buy s14. in the case of BV, then obviously just get the one he sells. if you get a s14 ruca free, then sure, use it on your s13, but otherwise no sense, unless you're super duper lazy to take off one more bolt to install. s13 is usually cheaper than s14 anyhow, in cases like cusco. $.02

silvias14ka24de · 10-31-2005, 10:02 PM

hm ic ic. i still get mixed answers cause i just talked to another guy, and he said they're not interchangeable. any more thoughts?

HyperTek · 10-31-2005, 10:36 PM

Battleversion sells only 1 arm for s14 and s13.

Well since were talkin RUCAs...is that all you need to fix the camber or do you need the other 2 arms too?

yes
ruca adjusts camber
rear toe adjusts....toe
rear traction doesnt really do much imo

silvias14ka24de · 11-02-2005, 09:58 AM

Is it a hard install? I wouldn't think so, but I have no clue. Anyone with proper steps to install?

the S13 strut's lower spring perch is the cause for most companies making them full-moon style with wider arcs.

here is a pic of S14 arms sitting on top of S13 arms. this should be a good reference for most people if they havent seen it already.
