Given his past success, including his being a former World Challenge champion, unless they're pulling in a boatload of sponsorship resources, I can't understand why they're still running it.

I mean, they only completed two race laps in their single appearance so far this year. And as you say, last year was pretty much a disaster. I've assumed that they're simply underfunded for what they've taken on.

So sad to see Robert Stout and Ric Bushey get crashed out on the 1st lap of Mid Ohio...

Um. When staying to the adjustment recommendations on the spl parts camber arms, the most negative I could get the camber (on a stock car) is positive 44 minutes left, and positive 4 minutes right. Can't get the toe anywhere close to acceptable. Is it safe to just thread the thing out?

Check this link out. I believe that the adjustment range is the same on the double adjuster, but verify with SPL.

I would call SPL and ask them the specifics of what the maximum you can thread out would be. Both Sean and Pat are very helpful!

Thanks,
Mike

i have the SPL LCA and its an amazing part. great to fix camber and feels good. havent had any issues with them yet. as far as noise goes I dont hear any noise coming from the LCA after replacing them.

Gonna be getting the toe arms and traction arms soon.

The thing I love about the SPL LCA is that there is absolutely no need for customers remove the entire arm to make a camber adjustment like other arms out there. i.e. stance, cusco, etc.

Thanks,
Mike

Would you happen to know how many turns of the adjusters equate to how much camber + or - ? Recent visit to an alignment shop yielded talking more about suspension than actual work being performed. Then the real customers came in.
