Default Sage Front & Rear RCA (SS kit) for Lexus

SAGE Front RCA (30mm). Comes with hardware...drops car 30mm (1.1 inches)....with coilovers, raise the car back up to preferred height, thus allowing shocks more travel....and correcting negative camber issue.

For Front RCA....

a.. Also known as Super Stroke Kit (SS Kit)
a.. Relieves stress on the Lower Ball Joints when 2GS is lowered.
a.. Extends life to your shocks, adds more travel distance, and prevents bottoming out (with height adjustable coilovers)
a.. Corrects negative front camber issues (with height adjustable coilovers)
a.. Avoid grinding LS400 calipers. Used to clear 95-00 LS400 caliper upgrade from rubbing steering knuckle.
a.. Lower your ride even more by 30mm /1.1 inches (spring/shocks or air setup)

Just got more Fronts and now have Rears in stock!

I heard there were some issues with another brands front RCA bolts and what the proper torque measurement was.

What do you torque your front bolts to? What grade are they?

Is there any type of discount that will be applied when the rears are available for both Front and Rear? If so, would I be able to buy the fronts now and still gain the discount upon purchase of the rear, or do I have to wait for the rears to be available.

Are these alloy aluminum? What grade of aluminum is used? 6000? 7000?

What is the finish? Standard or hard anodized?

Sorry for the barrage of questions, just installed Tein CST's and I'm looking to go lower

Sounds like a pretty good deal. I would be interested in the rear kit. How much would that kit be and would you be able to adjust the camber?

Torque to 83 ft/lbs....same as OEM spec.

I've already discounted the price for the introductory offer. So yes, you will save $ by buying the front now, and waiting for the rears when they come in. But it won't get any cheaper by buying both at the same time.

Are these alloy aluminum? What grade of aluminum is used? 6000? 7000?
Aluminum 6061

What is the finish? Standard or hard anodized?
Anodized and powercoated
