Any one use them ?? I see some no prep and street races use them for more travel and to correct the camber issue. Was thinking of trying a 1" taller one.
NO im not interested in a whole aftermarket front end because i cant lighten the car and then add the weight back ...LOL


....BAD A$$ STREET CAR.....

do they pull in camber or push out. my one car I mess with no prep my car sits low so it gives it more up travel. i might have to look into these.

FMJ body Spindles are 3/8” taller. A redesigned upper arm can help as well.

I have ran the taller spindles for years on my cars. I also shorten the rear arm of the upper control arm 1/4" or so by the upper bushing and use the offset bushings. Have never tried the taller ball joints, but they sound like a good idea, too.


Master, again and still

I run these with a 1" longer stud to correct negative camber on mine:

They increased travel as well up
