IMO Yeah, why not just have the ford ones, they are extremely cheap (£15 pair). Strong as you can get and not exactly heavy so you won't loose much by buying lightweight ones. |

areasix adjustable wishbones are what you want, except i think they went bust but there ars still some 2nd hand floating about. Wonder if theres an alternative product out there somewhere. As said, he needs to adjust the camber angle so it doesnt eat tires. Need a set myself mate. |

Yeah hes back  You can make your own adjustable ones, there is a guide somewhere. Might be here or on FT. Ford ones arent £15 a pair lol, that would be pattern ones. Ford ones retail at about £30 each i think. I'll ask someone who recently bought some.If you want a cheap adjustable camber ones, what i would do is get some QH pattern ones - ive used them and i know people who have on 60mm drops and they last very well. Then either keep them as they are and make them adjustable camber, or if you want to go one better, get some poly bushes in there, and make them adjustable. Be alot cheaper, but if you get it wrong then thats the only downfall. |

i run the area 6 bottom arms on my car and thyre very good Spherical bearings and camber adjutable ball jionts I had a set of Deflex bushes in Ford arms for 2 years and never had a failure, and for the money very good Id say.Deflex offer a lifetime warranty, whereas Powerflex dont, and theyre 3 times the price I have a set of Mk3 pattern balljionts ( 3 bolt) which have been machined to give the camber adjustement, Id sell them for £25 if anyone wants them, but remember for a MK3 , not MK3.5 |
