How are everybodies installs/alignments turning out on Speedybenzs creations? I'm ready for my set! I look forward to a quiet ride(tire noise from sidewall walking) and no inner sidewall wear.

funny thing is that speedy created them so that he could dial in more neg camber. And we're all using to get closer to 0.

Renn208,

You're are right I took mine and added more negitive camber and they work like they supposed to. I have had mine on for abut 1000 miles and they are quite and easy to adjust.

hey speedy...do you have an easy way to make sure that both sides are set for the same camber without having an alignment machine? Or is it simply a matter of seeing the same number of threads on equivilent parts?

Renn208,

The best way I found is to lay the new arm on top of the old arm. Then put the bolts through the holes. Then take the new arm and turn the rod until the bolts and holes line up to each other. It will be easy to see when the bolts are in the holes.

Once it is lined up then tighten down the jam nuts. If done carefully I think you can get the lengths to within a few thousands of each other or less then 0.25 degrees diference in camber angle.

Anybody rubbing now that the wheels are 'pushed' out on top more than before??
