Cheesenips 2.4L swap 97 neon build up thread

[Cheesenip]

I got my EGR block off kit the other day. If I would have known it was 2 dumb little plates, I would have made my own

Ok well my ACR hubs and knuckels came in. They look almost new. Came out of Cali, so arent rusted to shit
Anyways. I installed the passenger side. I took a few pics to show you the difference in the ACR hub and the standard hub.

Anyways: PICS!

Well here they Are

Well I put the standard hub and the ACR hub side by side. You might be able to see the thickness difference in the two. The new looking one is the ACR hub

Heres a tape mesure
ACR:

Standard

Installed, with the mopar high rate springs

Chrysler put thicker hubs on the ACR's b/c When the ACR was introduced, it was for scca racing. they put those on b/c they are stronger. They also put Koni struts on. The ones that were built stricly for racing, also came with bolt in roll cages. Oh Id love to have one

That's good I almost bought a neon back in the day I should of.

 

[Sammich]

true..just saying...is that basically the only difference? its just more sturdy than the neon hubs right

 

[Cheesenip]

yea, basically it, better bearings too. They only made them thicker bc as i said, ACR's were 1st introduced as track cars, then they made them available to the public

Would that mean losing the PS?

So sir. Better steering responce. The 2.4 it self can make me look the PS bc I have to switch everything. Its kind of a pain. But I think im goin to keep PS in the 97 but loose the AC
