Lower adjustable arms for camber?

[Andre]

Found these while looking for something to adjust the camber on the Z and wondered if any of you guys have bought these? Didn't really want to go cutting away at the strut tops to fit plates so are these the best option?

Ideally just thinking of the rear now and what the best options out there without cutting struts off.

Have you seen the BC coil overs ? you can buy just the top that fits the original Datsun mount and gives you adjustment, depends how much you want,

I made these for mine similar to the BC's

on the front with the 25mm offset RCA's I can get +4 to -4 degrees adjustment, doubt I will ever need more than that.

Hope that helps

Would they work on the rears too ?

I think that was me! I bought the Coilover kit though I haven't fitted them yet (major bare metal restoration so could be a while) but the quality seems great and the price I thought was excellent with UK backup.

Yup, I have a set of BC jobbies sitting in a UPS truck heading my way as we speak! Was going for GAZ, but after hearing about weird angled welding and having to tear down my rear struts completely and send to the UK, I decided me and a friend can simply leave the rear spindles in/ cut the struts and weld the BC stuff on after sliding it over the 2" stub... quite straight forward I hope.

Would these work with a Gaz gold set up? Mine have turned up today so can start putting it all back together now .

Not sure on that one, depends what size ID bearing they run and if its the same as the GAZ strut,

I was under the impression that sending my suspension to Gaz I'd get new strut tops ( top hats ) but I've got my old ones back fitted .... Is that right?
