Here is a cool item that resident AutoX Champion, mrFroge just found. He sent this link to me:

We were both wondering if this "trick" little mod could be fabricated to be used on the Fit? This part seems simple enough to make in a garage workshop.

I don't think that you can make those parts in your garage, unless your garage has a Bridgeport Mill in it. From the photos in the linked URL, it looks as if about 75% of the thickness of those triangular blocks has been milled away from the underside, center area. Either they made the part that way to reduce weight, or, more likely, the blocks have to fit over some protrusion on the tops of the stock parts where the blocks are mounted.

Anything can be made to work all you are doing is spacing the "A" arm further down. HOWEVER the "A" frame is a very important load bearing part that holds up the whole car so any mods you do on it you have to be positive of the materials and parts you are suing.

Remember this is for lowered cars only not necessary on a stock height Fit/Jazz.

I think it was "Js" racing that makes them for the Fit/Jazz check with kelsodeez I'm pretty sure he has (or had) them on his car.
