Got a link to those?

Ready!

Please do share your thoughts on this, first things first, but at some point in the future, we're going to be looking for what the next fitments are beyond the initial 390*34-6pot brake system.

AAD Performance? 😝. They make billet control arms and such. They have a no grind arm for the 15” wheel conversion. It’s the way to go.

The rear upper control arms? They dont seem to offer that many products for the Hellcat.

I thought this posting was about his manly hood needing some help.

They have a new adjustable toe arm for the 15” conversion. Prior to this there has been a fair amount of grinding required to clear the inside of the wheel. I have the BMR toe arms with the “skinny” end joints for the conversion and they still needed to be ground down some.
I’ll see if I can find a picture.

Yes as I will show in my pics there is a lot of grinding 😕but a I say ( it is what it is)

Sub'd also. Another interesting and relative thread. Thanks @hellno

Ok. You’re in the same boat as everybody else who went with (fill in the blank) suspension pieces and now there’s the AAD stuff. I went with the BMR toe arms with the special skinny heim joints that came as a part of the Carlyle conversion. They still needed grinding and can not be adjusted with the 15” wheel in place. The new AAD pieces are just not comparable to anything else out there.

As you can see here I started with a cut off wheel to cut the lower part of the sway Bar link where it mounts up this was fairly easy with a cut off wheel

If you look at the picture with the little bushing laying on top of the tire I cut the top of the bushing off with a mushroom head is this allowed my toe bolt to have more clearance between it and the tire I also had to grind about a 45° angle on the bolt it’s still on the head,By cutting the mushroom top of the head off the bushing it allows the bolt to go flush with the tow arm
