Got proof of that lie magnumdust??????? post something to back that up????? oh yea that one guy who drove into a curb sorry i forgot--Thanks
Really ask yourself if QA1 a multimillion dollar company would buy a patent only to be sued????? sick of the bashing and un-truth's told on this site,PROVIDE PROOF please
Nope no war here from me just sick of the lies
I'll chime in. I have a broken CAP tubular LCA that failed on my Challenger. A little less than 40k miles of street driving. No curbs, no racing. One of the welds cracked, which resulted in the tubular part of the arm separating from the part that anchors the torsion bar. Car dropped about 1/2" on that side, I noticed it sitting crooked and found the cracked weld.
CAP's designs weren't the problem, but the welding and quality control was crap. QA1 wouldn't really need to redesign anything, just send it out the door with good welds. Although I'm sure they did enough testing to prove it.
Check out my previous posts on CAP. I was a skeptic too, and kept running my CAP LCA's despite a lot of the incidents posted here and other places. And I still wouldn't swear that all of those were 100% true given the limited info I've seen on some of those cases. But I
can tell you that I've got a failed CAP LCA, and I didn't hit anything, didn't wreck my car, and never even had it on the track. Just a plain jane stock 318/904 with an one legger 3.23 rear daily driver. I DO run 1.12" torsion bars, and I DO have 275/40/17's all the way around, and 11.75" rotors. And I DO drive the living crap out of the thing on backroads. But nothing notable led to the failure, I didn't even notice it had failed until I was trying to figure out why it was sitting low on that side.
I STILL run the CAP adjustable strut rods too, btw. The aluminum tubes scare some folks, but I've got over 40k miles on them. No welds on them though. :mrgreen:
I'll even post a nice picture. Want a bigger one? I've got plenty of nice hi-res shots of this, I just reduced the size so it would post up better.
