I recommend the newest kinetix arms, not those, those are the old ones.

These:

This is semi hard to explain, and I have explained it before, but the kinetix (due to design) are some of the only arms out there that can be adjusted OUTWARD so far that it will physically hit the outter fender lip, which is common to the shock tower outter wall...

This is adjusting the kinetix WAY TO FAR OUT.

lets think about it here, the kinetix arms have a large threaded rod end that threads into the U shapped arm -- would you thread it in one thread and say ya that's good enough??? NO!! of course not...

There is a physical limit when adjusting the kinetix and you can not adjust any farther than the outter shock tower wall - or you will make contact.

comparing other arms - cuscos, etc wont adjust that far out, so of course they wont make contact at that point. so comparing arms that work/adjust camber differently is pointless.

Strength wise - the minimum thread engagement is 1.5times the diameter of the threads.

That guy cant get into spec cause his car is lowered to damm far, he needs to raise the car....if you slam your car, then you gotta play to pay..welcome to camber wear, poor performance, scraping every where and replacing tires frequently....done and done..

it is what it is......

now, look close at his pictures...how many threads do you think he has threaded INSIDE the upper arm itself....LOL at a few threads only...

physical limitations - its the z itself, nothing wrong with the arms in that case at all...

So I finally took off these garbage arms and replaced them with Kinetix arms and no more annoying clunking sounds.

As you can see the bushings have pretty much fallen apart and disintegrated.

Mine failed even before I dropped the car.

Listen to JasonZ-YA. Kinetix UCA and be done with it.

Yep I got the Kinetix and I'm liking the range of camber adjustment on it. I got my camber from a -2.0 to a -.3
