whats the purpose of the fold down the top of the arm?

 

3 reasons---1.weight savings, 2. Allows use of standard length set screw for the springless conversion, 3. If customer wanted to add a 1 inch spacer underneath, they can still use the same studs instead of buying longer studs.

In order to allow both the 9 degree angle and the ability to line up with the stock knuckle and keep the material thick enough to not loose any strength, 1.25" material needed to be used from the beginning. Rather than keep that big block over the studs where its not needed, ordering a longer set screw, and prevent possible use of a 1 inch spacer if a customer desired, it was milled down. Solidworks simulations showed no effect on strength.

 

Here is a quote from Azrckcrawler of Built to Grind fame on what makes the Artec arms so special.

A couple of us have been running hacked together setups utilizing 1018 steering arms and tying the arm into the stock tie rod hole. The concept in my mind is proven. In 6 years I have not had any broken studs or knuckle failures but have seen plenty of failures on the trail with the typical high steer arm just bolted to the top of the knuckle. Our buddy Chad was busting studs on his rear steer axle so often he carried an easy out kit and a cordless drill onboard for trailside stud extraction. Once he tied the steering arm into the stock TRE hole his problems went away.

Not only does this system allow double sheer on the heim joint, it completely reinforces the whole knuckle and helps prevent stud sheering. Mounting like this distributes more force to the knuckle itself and less force on the studs. Not only that, it allows total customization of how high you mount your ram. Most high steer arms are too high when compared to the location you want to mount your ram but because thats where the high steer arm is, you are forced to put the ram that high. Not so with the Artec Ultimate High steer arms. Simply cut the sleeve between the knuckle and high steer arm to your desired length to get a perfect height. If you look around at many of the KOH buggy builds happening right now including the 4405 Phoenix Land use buggy, they are attaching their steering in this method but heavily modifying normal arms to accomplish this. Here's the graphic again that shows just of few of the mounting options available with the Ultimate Dana 60 High Steer arms from Artec Industries. I basically just described the first two graphics on the left. Of course this only scratches the surface of options if you consider all the heights you can mount a heim on the Knuckle Bolt kit and even mounting heims under the high steer arms for crossover and so on.

The pics only show a flat surface, but are the tops of the bolt holes tapered to accept the nuts?


Quote for a pair of arms (setup for 6 holes/Solid keyway), knuckle bolt kits, & 12 studs/nuts shipped to 02035 please.

 

That's a great question. YES. They will have countersunk holes to accept the tapered nuts. The images above are from our prototypes in which our prototype tester wasn't using tapered nuts.

PM sent. Thanks for the chance to quote.

 

If you check the post above it says cannot be combined with any other offer. Sorry. But if you type in the word pirate in the comments field when checking out, I'll throw in some extra goodies.

 

I thought the 20% was only on Artec products.

 

That's right. Hardware and other items I don't make are regular price (see graphic above). You are saving almost $80 on your high steer arm order.

 

Wow, thanks for all the orders. Apparently alot of you having been waiting for a set of high steer arms like these at just this price.

Get them NOW and Save BIG!

 

Lookin' for 2 arms with stud kits (8 studs / nuts total) and D60 knuckle bolt kit shipped to 71913. Thanks!

 

PM sent. Thanks.

Everyone, don't forget we also sell 3/4" and 7/8"x3/4" heims to mount to the Knuckle Bolt Kit at great prices as well.

 

Having problems sheering studs? These arms are your fix! Reinforce the entire knuckle and strengthen your steering.

 

I wish you had started this thread 2 weeks earlier
I thought the only option I had for the SOLID knuckles was the SOLID arms

... oh well

 

Surely they at least have a 30 day return policy. I'm not saying their arms are bad but no other arms have the designs and features of these so...you should get what you need right, especially if you thought there was only one manufacturer making them.

 

I've already drilled them

EDIT;when i upgrade to a springless I want these ... no brainer ... I might be upgrading sooner than I thought

 

A sample of a installed picture. I'll post up more on Monday. Hopefully this gives you an idea of how this whole system really adds strength to the knuckle and flexibility in how you mount your steering.

 

I didn't see anywhere that mentioned what the distance or range of distance was from the center cap(setscrew) to the hole for the rod end. For example: some arms are 6" or 7" or 8" or whatever depending on your hydro setup.

 

Holy schnikes!!! A bunch of orders over the weekend and this morning for these arms. Thanks pirates.
