Slotting inner trailing arm mount Options

[yeahmag]

Let me start out by saying I think too much... With that out of the way, I'm wondering what the viability is of slotting the inner trailing arm mount to lower it, giving me more static camber. Here's the idea:

* Small slot of inner ear
* 8mm "elevator" with welded tab to control the location of the inner mount prior to tightening the bolt.
* Switch from the RSR Teflon bushings to monoballs and custom pivot shafts to allow for the increased angle

Nuts or brilliant?

I'm at something like 2.4 and would like to see 3+ if I could. Car is already pretty much in the weeds...

Let me back the why not?

The inner pivot will need a whole lot more torque on it to keep it from shifting around in the "slot" vs. what is required in the stock hole. Once that joint loosens it will begin to bang around and become oval, potentially in a direction you don't want it to.

You may not necessarily hear it "bang" around but if it loosens, it will be moving and sawing away at the hole/slot.

From your Avitar it looks like you may be running competitively so I assume that is why you're asking.
