NEW AND IMPROVED DESIGN (2024).
It seems just about every Spridget has some form of old front end damage and we've found camber often varies dramatically side to side on these old cars. Here's the best solution... this adjustable arm allows you to finally precisely control camber for the desired result.
The adjustable a-arms that we previously offered were difficult to install. As shown in the photo below, initial installation of the a-arm to the car was a breeze, but once you attach the king pin to the arm at the fulcrum pin, it was quite a struggle to get the pin actually tight with the interference from the mounting bolts.
Our new and improved design uses original fulcrum pins, so not only is all of the original equipment re-used (so you don't need any special tooling for install), but there is no interference between the fulcrum and the mounting bolts. This way, once you have the front suspension put together, it will be easier to install our slotted shims to adjust your camber.
This part is one more tool to allow you to improve the drivability of your car. A 1/2" thick aluminum shim should put the a-arm back to stock length, then you can adjust the camber with the small shims according to your specific car.
Each adjustable a-arm comes with (1) .25" thick shim, (3) .125" thick shims, & (6) .030" shims, so you can adjust your camber either in or out.
A note about finish... these are recycled control arms so they are not cosmetically perfect. They are nicely powder coated and look great! But you might find some cosmetic variations from past life service.
These control arms do not come with the spring seats in the center. You will have to re-use your original spring seats and paint them black.
Watch the video below to see how we used this new product to fix a formerly crashed Bugeye (the previous design is shown in the video, but the outcome is the same).
