Kmac only makes them for 2 sets of arms, the front and rear. I want them for all suspension bushings.

Also a related thought- Since kmac basically replaces the stock bushings with poleruthane ones of an eccentric type, and since other option in the rear is to simply use an adjustable camber arm, why are there no adjustable camber arms for the front? Are they not the same length or curved specially in the front?

Lastly I see that ksport makes coilovers with adjustable camber plates with pillow mounts. Are these available seperately? Does anyone make them seperately? Thanks. Sean

I hope you are not planning to run your car on the street with polys all the way around

I can tell you from experience that you will HATE your car's ride in NO time at all if you do. You will get rattles VERY soon, and the slightest imperfect road, which PA has tons of, will make your Mercedes ride like a MAC truck my friend.

For race use, they are the cats meow, for the street, well you have been warned.

See yeah

Me? Interestingly, the BS only runs poly bushings in specific arms with regular bushings in the rest to retain some compliance.
