Glad to see Battle Version finally making arms for the Lexus camp. I've been a faithful supporter since the S14 days. Next on my hit list.

I've seen some of there prices but Fig's seems to have the same parts cheaper.

Anyone here using some of their parts?

Wanted to add some info on the parts. Pretty excited to have the full rear line up that allows you to fit some aggressive wheel fitments. From tucked in tight to poking those deep dishes out!

For the ruca's, they use 2 piece teflon injected rod ends on high limit spacers with 1.5" of adjustment. That adjustment range is enough to take you back to factory specs even with the car lowered down, or it can also get you to those high neg camber numbers some of you are looking for.

The inner mounts on the ruca's are a rubber bushing made from 80% poly and 20% rubber. Reason for this is if you go with a 100% poly, the bushings tend to crack after long use. We have used the same type of bushing on other products in the bver line up for many years with great success.

Like others have stated in this thread, if you are going to be adjusting the camber more than a certain amount, the ruca's do work best with some toe links to get your alignment back on track.

For those of you looking to fit some aggressive wheels, we do suggest using the lca's and traction links as well. The LCA's and traction links come with the highest quality 3 piece teflon injected rod ends with 1.5" of adjustment.

Some test fit pics:

This is with 19x11 -16 tucked in.




Same wheels but with a 30mm spacer added to get that poked out look.
