Question Anyone try SPL's New Front Camber/Caster Arms Yet?



Has anyone tried SPL's new front camber/caster arms on a G yet? I've been following them on my350z, but haven't seen many people posting about them here.

SPL's new camber arms are a new product, but look very good to me. They are fabricated with Chromoly tubing and Chromoly spherical bearings, so they should be plenty strong. They also have more positive camber adjustment to correct the negative camber effects of lowering. Most importantly SPL uses a threaded adjuster, not a sliding plate that relies on friction between 2 plates tightened together to hold its setting.

I'm not affiliated with SPL Parts in any way. I do like their control arms, or multilink arms as they call them. Here's a link to their alignment instructions. It's a pretty good writeup and has more pictures.

I should have these installed within the next few weeks when I can find a free Sat.

Cool. Keep us informed.

I have a new set of Tein 350z S.Techs on my coupe. I just got a set of SPC rear camber arms and toe bolts. I'm trying to figure out if I should install a set of these front control arms when I have the rear arms installed, or wait and have it aligned with only the rear arms and see how close the front alignment actually is.

Mine has been shipped out today. Waiting for the SPC rears to ship as well. Then I'd have to wait the coilovers to be finalized and made so it'd take couple weeks.
