Adjustable Control Arms. Ease of adjust-ability?
I'm researching into adjustable control arms and have a question for those who have them installed.
What do you have and what is the adjustability process? Allot of you swear by SPC, SPL, Kinetix, Stillen. But when I look at most of them, they seem so cumbersome to adjust. Stillen looks to be pretty straight forward, others not so much. Does the car needs to be jacked up for adjustment on all of them? |
195 views and nobody got adjustable control arm to report on?

The kinetix are by far the easiest. The ball joint just screws into the control arm. Depending on the amount of camber you want you just screw them in or unscrew them outward to adjust, then use the jam nut to lock em in place. I also like them best, cuz unlike some slide pin type, once they're set they can not move. You never have to readjust unless you want a different camber setting.
Edit: this is just for the fronts. The rears I would only get SPC, SPL or eibach. |

I got SPC on the rear already. I need something for the front.
The replacement ball joints are only $27 tho, so the arms are rebuilt very inexpensively. |
I'm on springs so not that low. Low enough however where camber is an issue in the front. Not a fan of throwing tires out because of camber wear, where there is at least 10-15k miles left in the rest of the tire.

Kinetix are most likely your answer then.

can you get to adjusting bolt without raising the car?
