SPL, what were the specs of camber and caster adjustability of the V-1?... I remember they were broader than most other A-Arms, but not sure how they compare to the V-2 (v-2 specs of course are available on your website, but v-1 is no longer there).

The camber adjustability range is about the same, the v2 technically has a little more caster adjustability but it cannot be adjusted on the car (arm has to be disconnected for adjustment). The advantage to the v2 arms is:

Shim adjustment (easy and repeatable to change setting for track/street)

v2 arms are stiffer when loaded under braking

v2 arms have a better quality ball joint bearing which will last longer under street use.

v2 arms do not require that you align the ball joint bearing when locking down the adjustment.

Thank Kuah… the caster adjustment off car makes it a bit difficult to get in spec during alignment, but no biggie really - there are ways around that…

Thanks for the info
