New SPC camber A-arms
 
Let me tell you guys...these pieces are REALLY REALLY nice.
A massive step up in both quality and beef-nicity over the skank2's I was using.

These new spc units adjust both camber and caster:
-Camber is adjusted w/ a sliding plate that is adjusted by turning a front mounted bolt, above the balljoint, and then tightened down w/ 4 10mm bolts.
-Caster is adjusted also w/ a sliding plate and tightened w/ 2 13mm bolts.




If any of you plan on getting a kit or replace your old set, I HIGHLY recommend you get these. They cost roughly $250/pair and so far I think theyre worth every penny.

The only thing that I could see being an issue is the camber adjusting bolt. If the drop is serious enough it could stick out far enough and then catch on the inner fender-well under hard driving/rough roads.....that could be taken care of w/ a little grinding on the car.

The camber adjusting nut does not move, it moves the plate behind it to effect the camber. You shouldn't have to worry about the bolt hitting. By the way, nice pics of the arms.

I know it doesnt move but it does stick out over the balljoint...but...look what I found

pics were "borrowed" from spc ;)
I didnt take pics when I installed them...

I had never seen or heared about that b4, I will look at my car to see if this might happen to me. Thanks for the heads up!!

So you're still happy with them?

I think I'm gunna have to order a set... I have to replace my stockers now and they're expensive even at my cost... like 150 or more for the pair... and if ever end up lowering the car I'll regret not spending the extra dough now...

pdiggitydogg 05-25-2004 06:22 PM

Yep, still very pleased with them.
(Hasnt been that long..but Ive been doing a lot of driving lately)

I have the SPC adjustable ball joint type on my Teg. I dont like it. I posted the reason on that H-T thread....

nonovurbizniz 05-25-2004 09:16 PM

so what part makes noise on yours?... I don't really get it..

Oh and I ordered the full alignment kit... the moderate one though... it can be set to stock settings...

It comes with rear lca's front upper ball joints (no arm) and rear upper camber arms...

I will do a write up when I get it and install it all...

pdiggitydogg 05-25-2004 09:19 PM

I also have the spc rear camber arms...those are also good

how do you like their lca's?

nonovurbizniz 05-25-2004 09:25 PM

I litterally JUST ordered them...

seconds after I posted my question to you...

they'll probobly be here by the end of the week if not early next...

I'll put them in the day I get them... probobly do a quick write up that night.

pdiggitydogg 05-25-2004 09:27 PM

yeah...after posting I kinda realized that :o :D
