Hi guys, looking at the other arms, if the tapers line up this should be no problem. I received the camber arm today and I will design thr two tabs this week. My new tapered studs and high misalignment rod ends work great in this application, should be a direct fit.

I will post up as soon as I have a proto. maybe a few days.

yeah its a little more welding than my other links with the tabs etc and I will need to see if we can get by with 5/8" rod ends vs 3/4" Just as a target I would say around $250 given the rod ends I am targeting now. plus or minus. I also have a few more options for on-vehicle adjustment.

Price sounds good to me. Any other links in the works? I notice there are 3 links for the rear of the LS are you planning on making adjustable replacements for the set?

yes eventually all links, the sway endlinks should not be a problem either.
