Rear Camber/Toe Adjustment Arms

concentrics do slip if they are responsible for camber, like on a corvette.... but with the Z's dedicated camber arm and a plate, I don't know how much force is

FYI, with the KWs, I put a lock out plate on the SPL camber arm and used the OEM concentric bolt for toe... I can't get all of the toe out of it as it sits.

some vendor needs to just stamp out a bunch of set of plates with different offsets.

First, really dig the wheels in your avatar. I had a similar ride, though I think I had wider rubber on the back than yours.

Just curious on your KWs, how agressive did you drop with them ? I am guessing as little as possible ? Seems odd that toe would be an issue.

You mean like this??

I had them made to match the eccentric position after an alignment!!
Then using SPL traction rods to fine tune the toe!

I have an extra set of camber straight lockout, and toe (with Swift drop toe adjustment) for sale if anyone is interested.
No bolts though.
