Yeah they are exactly the same. I kept my spcs in the neutral caster position anyway so I didn't need anything special. These also have more than enough positive and negative adjustment which is cool. I read the kinetix arms were limited.

Mine are all the way in and the best i can manage is around -2.6 degrees, if I'm pretty low.

Which I am not, normally..

What did he charge you for them?

I have been tossing around the idea of having some just like yours made but with adjustable ends on the body-side too so that I can use sphericals there and use spacers for caster adjustment.

That's cool. Most just cut the nut down or threaded part so the tie rod end goes in more for more adjustment. I need caster since I'm 0.3* off.
