I bought from Speedy. The product is top notch. Be patient. The guy did right by me.
Let me get this straight; You waited till the tires go balled, you own a shipping/trucking Co. and you're in a hurry for parts and someone else's delivery ?

Lengths of different stock rear camber arms??
Happy New Year Guys.
Just lowered my car and was wondering, has anyone here looked at getting the measurements of the various factory rear camber arms in the Mercedes part bin from the different models?
It would be great to find some that was maybe 3-6mm longer than stock.
The stock rear camber arms on my CLK is ~299mm between bolt centers. If we can find some that are 303mm and uses the 12mm bolts that would be useful in removing some of the neg. camber, without resorting to purchasing the somewhat expensive camber kits.

I also ordered from Speedybenz through his website. Its been OVER a month and I have gotten no reply. How much did you guys wait until you received the camber kits? I hope he doesn't just forget about it cause 280 dollars is quite some money.

That part I can't debate.However, if the person ordering the parts did a little backround work (searching the forum) they would see that Jeff makes these parts-they are not off the shelf or re-labled parts.His work is top notch and well worth the wait.

Be careful which adjustable control arms you purchased. They are not all created equal. I purchased the ones not from speedy or lensolo. It turned out that it requires that you drill out the 12mm mounting holes on your clk to 1/2". Not what I want to do on my car. If that doesn't bother you to do that, they should be just fine and will save you about $100. Just FYI.
plz advice..... i got one too
