Yeah I'm really not fine with that at all. IIRC the V2 knuckles were advertised at 60 degrees. If they can't achieve that due to a design problem then I may start looking elsewhere. I've had some issues with the rear knuckles as well but haven't contacted Greg yet because I haven't had the time to address it.

The V2 knuckles were advertised as being good for 60 degrees are good for 60 degrees lead and circa 50 degrees trailing. Steve wanted more out of them, hence his disappointment that the caliper position was a limiting factor. Note that the steering arm position maxes out right after the caliper hits so for most setups the caliper hitting isn't really the limiting factor as you need to back it off a little for your lock stop anyway.

If you've had any trouble at all please email us. Ive installed many sets of these parts on cars myself so know the product very well.

Regards,
Greg
