GOOD NEWS YOM!

Currie Currectlync system WILL fit with stock 17" rims (no spacers). There's roughly 10mm clearance at the closest point when at full right lock. I chose to test the left wheel at right lock as this is the business end of the system. Also note that i have not adjusted my steering stops at all from stock.

First 2 photos are of the wheel pointing straight ahead and the rest are at full right lock.

Dynatrac prosteers are in as well as the Currie Currectlync.

Chose to put a u cup seal (U16N7) in between the upped ball joint and the knuckle, don't know why Dynatrac don't include one here? I cut a few v's into the inner lip so grease will pass.

Pics are of clearance on full right lock with a AEV Savegre 4.7BSM (10mm offset rim).

Drives bloody beautiful now, steering feels a little heavier but solid as!!

Thanks to going to the extra effort and placing on Std 17" Wheel to check clearances. Very much appreciated.
This will help many people thinking of up grading.

Ps the stock stabiliser mount can be modded with a lick of a die grinder/ anglegrinder to fit the 1.5" OD of the Currie. Will finally fit my PPM relo bracket pending clearance check when i get time.

Fitted drivers side and passenger side grab handles. My wife was having trouble getting up and into the passenger seat, she quite likes having something to grab onto now.
