Got it. I was think specifically about the fact that it replaces both arms. Any issues there?

Missed the fact that the kit was camber arm and traction arm. My interpretation of the rules is that the traction arms can't be replaced.

Quote:

14.8.H.1
On double/unequal arm (e.g., wishbone, multi-link) suspensions, only the upper arms OR lower arms may be modified or replaced, but not both. Non-integral longitudinal arms that primarily control fore/aft wheel movement (e.g., trailing arm(s) or link(s) of a multi-link suspension) may not be replaced, changed, or modified.

I read the last sentence there as forbidding the traction arm replacement. The second arm that you actually want to replace is the arm the spring bucket is integrated into. Since you can't use a truetype coilover the only options you really have are to keep the eccentric for that arm or get the SPL midlinks and replace the sphericals with poly bushed rod ends.
