Anyone selling used aftermarket suspension parts?

Looking for KW v3, Bilstein PSS10, Kmac camber plates.
Seeing if anyone wants to sell their old stuff before I pull the trigger on new parts

Thanks!

Where are you located? I saw someone locally selling a K-mac's rear camber kit and rear bushing kit in Toronto, Canada on the facebook market page.

I was interested buying this myself but I think I'm just going to wait and buy some coilovers that have a camber plate included, was thinking KW clubsport but would like to see what other options are available.

If you want some KMAC rear lower control arm adjustable camber bushings, open to swapping my arms with yours straight up (just pay shipping both ways).

Same for the adjustable KMAC bushings in the front lower control arm. I’m going to remove the arms sometime in the next week or two. Will sell for cheap.

Also have a brand new Ultra Racing rear subframe brace that won’t fit due to my new diff pump placement.

Super beefy adjustable swaybar endlinks. I guarantee they’ll never break. Made a thread on them awhile ago and have a set here I think.

Sure I have more stuff here, will look in the garage later. PM me if you’re interested in anything.

KW Clubsports are not adjustable for camber in rear. The camber plates are only on the front.

Oh good to know. Shows how much I've actually looked into them.

If I were looking to get better grip on my rear tires drag racing, I'd have to get rid of the negative camber correct?

I believe I'm running -2.2 /2.0 last I checked and that was before I installed hr springs. I've read somewhere -.5 degree camber in the rear is a nice spot to be to hook nicely.

Correct. Adjustable camber arms or KMAC bushings will do the trick.

Would you say both work well together or need each other for the optimal setup, or can I get away with getting just 1 kit.

I can't figure out how K-mac bushings would give less negative camber.

Or another option I would think is to spend a bit more a get a good coilover setup that has camber plates in the rear?

Thanks for the help!

It’s one or the other the bushing is installed in the factory rear control arms and allows the off centered bushing hole to rotate and thus moving the arms to change the toe setting with one arm and the camber with the other. The adjustable links replace the factory parts and get larger or smaller to adjust. The links give more overall adjustability and usually hold the settings better than the bushings. I’m saying that the previous owner of my car had the adjustable bushings installed and they have held fine for me. Changing to the arms myself shortly

Yeah I’ve got both but it’s unnecessary really. Plan to replace the rear KMAC adjustable bushing with a spherical from SDW, but it’d be a waste of a perfectly fine KMAC bushing to tear it out of the arm.

Okay so if both aren't necessary would you say it would be best to just go with KMACs rear camber kit over the bushing kit? For better camber/toe adjustability?

Just really looking to get less negative camber in the rear for better drag setup and if I can save money on getting only one kit that's a bonus.

Honestly, KMAC are super easy. Just set and forget. Feel no different than OEM. For minor adjustments like this, they’re the answer.

The arms are a little finicky but I need the extra adjustability. They loosen up and make a ton of noise, ride is rougher. The rod ends they come with are junk. You also need to grind down a frame edge to get them to fit right.

When you say the arms I'm guessing that part of the K'macs rear camber kit? I'm not familiar with what's in the camber kit. If so I guess going with the bushing kit is better for what I'm after.

MBTrueNorth Marketplace on FB. I bought a new OEM finned diff cover / rectifier and Weistec transmission pan from him last week. His name is Eugene and he's a nice and solid guy. We spent about an hour outside his place talking about cars. He's getting rid of some stuff he never installed on his 507 and pulling other aftermarket parts off to return it back to stock before he sells it or trades it in for a 911 Turbo.

I hope you didn't pay asking for the pan.

LOL. He gave me a bit of a deal because I bought both, but yeah, he was originally asking for what they sell for new.

Way more than what I paid new lol. I was interested in the diff cover but that was sky high as well. Maybe if he was closer I would have messaged.

Is this a new item? I don’t seem to see it on their website.
