    2G rear knuckle differences?

    Kudos, Went to a local junk yard, 3 trips (definitely earned their 3 star rating) and $40 later I got what I needed, listed as a 2004 eclipse rear spindle.the countersink was massive in the knuckle itself, I would think one of your custom parts would work for a late 3G guy, but you would have...

    2G rear knuckle differences?

    I was hoping it was steel. Would you do a pair with a larger seat? V2 design improvement?

    2G rear knuckle differences?

    Honestly Bobby, This 3G style should be the default for your shock pin, the bigger seat moves it enough for a shock with 2.5 dia springs out of the way for max clearance. Is your shock pin aluminum or steel?

    2G rear knuckle differences?

    Brilliant, that looks like what I need. funny that I think of the Avenger/Sebring before acknowledging there was a 3G Eclipse.

    2G rear knuckle differences?

    It came out of a used 2G rear knuckle, pretty sure I threw the knuckle itself away, I just wanted the shock pin. time to start looking up avenger/sebring part numbers

    2G rear knuckle differences?

    Because I work remote, and a picture is worth a 1000 words... Both are fully threaded in, but only hand tight.

    2G rear knuckle differences?

    Yes, the one with the larger seat moves the shock inboard, away from the tire. The opposite side with the normal 2G Bolt is where I have the issue. The relationship of the lower spring perch to the Knuckle, to the hub, wheel and tire does not change with suspension movement. That is clearly...

    2G rear knuckle differences?

    Maybe the top bolt in my photo is from an Avenger or something else built in Normal, IL? I messed up the internal threads on my old one, and bought a replacement knuckle just for the standoff bolt. Didn't notice it was different until later. Other than the conical seat, they are identical. My...

    2G rear knuckle differences?

    So I've known for a while that somehow I ended up with different lower shock mounting bolts in my rear knuckles. Wasn't an issue until going from 18x10.5 15et Enkei RPF1 to 18x11 15et Konig Hypergram. Only had the new setup on for 2 runs before the center diff shit the bed, but now getting...

    Using a razor blade, I can get to bare metal.

    2G Painted Oil Filter Housing

    At first I wasn't sure, but it smells of fresh paint, and the finish is uniform on every surface I can seeof

    2G Painted Oil Filter Housing

    Both the Oil Filter housings I have are leaking, one I cracked, the other is leaking from the rear plug that has the spring. I picked up a "re-manufactured" OFH on eBay, and I am unsure if I should use it, they painted the entire thing, including the internal surfaces from what I can see. Is...

    Resolved 2G What bolts to use to attach clutch to flywheel?

    I am giving up on the twin disc clutch, and the bolts that fasten the clutch to the flywheel are much longer than what is required to go back to a stock style setup. Is there a mitsubishi part number for these 6 bolts?

    98 Talon AWD Street Modified

    Raised the splitter half an inch, still not enough. Time to raise it again. Got the wing installed. I don't think I've seen a similar mounting method. Probably because it is dumb, infinitely adjustable for no reason, lol. I think I have some suspension tuning to do with the new aero, car got a...

    98 Talon AWD Street Modified

    XA, not in a rush to do SM at the moment. Work out the bugs with less expensive tires.
