For the cost of design and build, only a few people would actually want them. The HellaGay crowd doesn't care about geometry, and they won't help them get closer to the ground. Most of the daily cars are only lowered about an inch up front, and their geometry is still Ok. Only the serious track guys would really want a set, and the price would be freaking high. Then again us track guys can always cut the LCA mounts off and move them up to correct roll center.
Yes that does make sense as far as demand. i plan to give these adjusters a try.

How i wish i had the ability to perform such a modification confidently. Not to say i wont one day.
