they go straight on
if you can get H/KTG stubs and use HQ discs callipers it's better for wheel alignment but you can still use the HQ it's just a bit better with the H/KTG

Thanks ratbox
so will this move the caliper to the rear of the disc
insted of being at the front. Because it catches on the
front end on full lock where it is at the moment
hope this makes sense :?

you can have the calliper at front or back, just swap left to right and vice versa complete stubs and brakes this will move the calliper to the rear

i thought the KPI on HR and HQ was the same ?

i know the HQ stubs will change the ride height by about 1 inch but i thought that was all ...

had them on my convertable and it stuck the wheels out at the top
and a mate that has an injected 5L in an EH has HQ stubs and his wheels stick out at the top and he was told by wheel align guy to change to H/KTG
I don't think it's much
hadfeild stubs are one size fits all from HD to HQ and are based on HQ

I think the best way is HQ stubs and HK steering arms - send Dr Terry a PM and ask him, he is the guru.
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Dr Terry is the bloke that wrote 45 years of Holden, 50 years of Holden and soon to be released book 60 years of Holden.
Full of Holden information he is, and like Blacky said, he is the Guru.

Cheers,

The other Terry ( not Dr Terry )
