im looking for the opinion of someone with knowledge in metal fabrication or engineering... i have a concern with the strength of my a-arms after modifying them. im looking to pull a little more pos camber up front and everyone knows, the spc a-arms dont have much adjustment. my question is, how much can i grind out (of the circled section,pictured below) before sacrificing the safety of the arms? im sure i could completly grind that whole section out but IF the ball joint nut happened to work itself loose one day, id be in some trouble. i also thought about cutting it completly out and having that section extended out a little bit. that would then require a bit of persuasion from underneath too since i would be hitting.

 

If you use the provided spacers, SPC a-arms have the MOST positive adjustment....+3 degrees IIRC. The spacers add a static +2 degrees. The arms themselves can adjust up to +1 degree.

 

^What he said. Just add the spacers and you shouldn't need to hack the arms

 

thats my problem. ive been trying to get ahold of the spacers. i purchased the arms used from a member on here about a year ago and the spacers were not included. i found one member who has the spacers available but he will not ship them.

 

Just keep looking for the spacers is your best bet... I have contacted SPC too see if they would sell just the spacers by themselves and they won't

 

I think I may have some.

 

me too they said they recc. i install their adjustable ball joints for added adjustment if i dont have the shims

 

please take a look for me. PM me your price shipped to 08081.

 

anybody come across the shims? really need these asap

 

still looking for a set of shims! need them for spring

 

How much where you looking to spend for my unopened spacers?

 

no idea what theyre worth. pm me with a price if you wanna get rid of them
