SLP adjustable FRONT camber arms FYI

^ I get that from time to time also. Only a handful of times. More so when I was lower than I am now.That's one reason why raised it up

Is there enough room in the grooves of the SPC adjustment to put two more bolts in there to hold your setting? (think...sandwiching the main bolt with one more smaller one on each side for support)

Interesting concept, it will be something I have to look into. I would just tack weld it to the desired setting but the metals are dissimilar. Note that the lock bolt never loosens up, it just slips in the grove.

one slipped out of adjustment. went from 3.5 degrees negative to some amount of positive camber.

Ichiba and Kinetix both look like they have the same design as spc.

I have an e-mail into AM Performance to see when they might have their front arms available. I was told so far that they just finished the race season but weren't focused on customer parts yet. Maybe if some other interested parties contacted them too they might hurry that up. Right now the other available arms kind of suck. I'm sure anything from AM Performance will be "race proven".
