Our test cars do see fairly aggressive abuse jumping curbing at quite a few tracks and Russell's street driving is also a bit over the top. I would say I have more faith in these arms than any other part on the market."

You don't believe them?
No and it has nothing to so with the parts guy on the phone, it has everything to do with the physical design of a loaded in shear bolt. It's a structurally inferior design to a loaded in compression design like the SPL's. Having seen SPC's snap at the track and causing thousands of dollars worth of damage to a car, I would not run a front camber arm from any mfgr with that physical design period. Even if +30 dollars says they are AOK.


Edit: Although looking at the pics above, it does look like that is loaded in compression, is the "track" upgrade a different attachment to the spindle? If so then I would definitely consider them. And if so they they really should show both pics in their ad.
