Upper and/or lower control arms Measurements Cad
Posted: Wed, 26 Jan 2022 2:33 +0000
Hey, so I'm creating my own upper and lower control arms for my 2006 Hilux, and I cant find any measurements on the stock control arm.
So do any of you got some cad blueprints or measurements of the upper and/or lower control arms it would be lovely. I only need the main dimensions ball joint, bushing etc. (but more is always better)
Any measurement would be great !!
So why ? Well I live in Iceland and for off-roading we need 38" tiers or more so to fit 38" under the Hilux without cutting the cab I need to move the control arms forward about 50mm. I don't want to lift it (at least as little as possible) so that leaves only one option.
I will be designing the upper control arm in cad and will use a cnc milled from a block 6061 Aluminum.
I will post the cad files for free if you guys want.
I'm currently learning mechanical engineering put this will be my first control arm from scratch
