Alignment issue with SPC front arms
Hi guys I just installed SPC front camber arms on my z but during alignment the tech couldn't get the passenger side to alignment specs and the weird thing us there was no problem with the driver side.

Without digging into detail...
It would help if you can specific what is currently off (camber, toe or caster)? How low is your ride height? Slammed? Which version of SPC FUCA did you buy? There are two versions.

How much are you off on camber anyway?
Left pic is original (camber adjustable), right pic is the latest new design (camber & caster adjustable). Edit - first one also caster adjustable but smaller adjustment range, my bad.

Those new SPC arms look pretty nice.

It's - 2 and we couldn't to lower it more the sliding arm hits the max but for the other side it was OK we brought it to spec.

Did the tech have to max the other side to get it within spec? A 1 in drop shouldn't give such problem. If you can, I say double check the installation, also for failed bushings on the arms.
Sorry for your trouble.
