Z1 front adjustable camber arms

wideglideleon · 07-05-2017, 07:10 PM

Update the bolt did not back out. Looks like their fix worked. It was the ball joint part that bolts to the arm? Sheared right off.
Spencer @ Z1 had been great though he is overnighting me new SPL control arms full refund for my defective Z1 arms and SPL at cost and covering all costs to have them switched out.
Disappointed about the Z1 part but they have been taking care of me 100%.

Just wanted the community to know.

Nice customer service there. Spencer has taken care of me in the past as well.

I've talked to Spencer at ZDayZ. He is a nice guy.

i bought a set of these Z1 upper arms as well with the solid joints when they came out, did the install myself. rode them for a while and as others stated noticed a creeking in the suspension on certain bumps and pops every now and then. Then i got the letter about the bolt issue and had nissan do the replacement when it got in. Update it doesn't pop anymore but i do get an occasional creek. I will be replacing these out with the SPL arms as well. I'm big on paying for what you get. But the drivabilty of the Z1 arms always has me worried on the back burner so I'll make the switch soon.

Good idea, mine always were loud then the ball joint snapped off. Since going with SPL very quiet and more responsive. I should have gone with SPL in the first place!
I have learned going cheaper can be more expensive in the long run.
