I need camber correction after lowering on coilovers. I am aware of several options out there but seems to be a lack of information (mfg’s telling me “they should work, let us know if you try”) and forms warning of failure on anything but spendy (but awesome!) SPL units.

I held off on purchasing Z1 control arms to look at a few other options and now they are out of stock so that off the table. These look similar to the Kintix arms- I’ve read they are a pain in the ass to adjust and again chance of failure due to shear weight on the ball joint (and our cars are heavy).

does anyone have experience with SPC?
I’ve seen posts about failures at the ball joint and them coming loose as a result of the design. They also look like they curve up a bit compared to others, wondering if this will effect how much I can lower the car without causing contact with the body?

Z1 suggested SPL arms but the price is hard to swallow for a daily driven street car.

voodoo 13 makes a similar arm at a slightly lower price- can anyone confirm fitment? I think these are the arms I’ll go with if I can verify fitment/ adjustability.

I appreciate suggestions (besides Megan or Godspeed) and feed back- thanks!

Update: I’ve tried several other arms including the SPC ones a lot of sites list as “fitting.” While they do bolt up they are too short and alignment will be impossible. Looks like Megan or custom are the way to go
 
Well I fo know my alignment guy said he couldn't get the rear straight. So its only the rears where we need the Megan control arm?
 
I would strongly recommend getting it all around. Its just that much better for future adjustments.
