Camber arms LOUD ??

How loud are we talking about? Most likely it's nothing, but road noise increase from just the FUCA shouldn't be so much that causes concern...your car is still stock arms and springs all around except for the SPL FUCA yea?

I replaced a few arms and coilovers, then switch back to stock, then back to all SPL arms and coilovers. I could tell the difference in noise level, but nothing severe enough to make me think something is rubbing.

I've never notice any increase in noise with my SPL arms and lower bearings. Maybe because of my exhaust set-up. I lube my bearings with a spray lube, because there is no grease fittings to do otherwise.

Well crap... this is not helping ease my concern, i must say.

Is there a torque spec for the bolts that hold the A-arm on?

- I used the German torque spec of "gutentite".
