I have these arms, well had.... I found the *** end of the sways alot for some reason, so I made my own.... the arms that do the adjusting are solid steel drilled through, not thin wall crap tube, and the upper and lower arms are one piece solid rectangle tube with solid bushings. Everything is so tight now, drives like a dream and traction is pretty crazy too.

We already have 3 sets for the $215 shipped price...

1. sfclk
2. OGCLK320
3. xxmurrtownogxx@aol.com

...if you're interested please add your member name and email address to the list. I'm looking to reply back to benzboy with more than 3 to possible get the price lower than $200+ shipping for a set.

J56BP, interested in a set?
lol yes i need one also ( i'm the one who started this !! but now i don't know who to believe drill or no drill ???.....

Hey Guys!

I have 4 more spots to fill to get the ball rolling. And, as TJMJR said, i'll work with you on this price just to get things going for him and the folks that have already paid. Please email me for that price as I won't be posting it publicly (and, I hope that you could be courteous enough to respect that and not post as well.).

I'm not going to say my product is better and is made with aircraft precision, track tested and completely engineered by 4(four) mechanical and structural engineers out of CNC machined T304 stainless steel with bushings that are +- .001" in tolerance and require NO DRILLING. I'm sure someone else will say it.

Regards,

Len

Lensolo:

I've got a set of speedybenz camber arms on my W210. There is a second set of arms that control the toe in on the rear wheels. Speedybenz doesn't include those. Right now my toe is not terrible but it could use adjustibility. Do you make those arms too? Feel free to PM me if needed.

LAST SET SOLD!!!

The last set has been sold, so we are now done with the first step.

Give me a couple weeks to get the kits, put them together with the rod ends, and get them out to YOU.

Thanks, guys

You need to have an angle drill, or a small die grinder to open up the hole for the new size bolts. He uses standard size bolts in a metric hole. The amount of material you need to remove is minimal, but is still too thick to just run a larger bolt through. I was able to reach a round file through the hole, but it took a long time to file it down since the working area is so cramped. The product he is selling is of good quality, and works great. Just make sure you have all the right tools ready before you remove your factory camber arms. The working area is very cramped. The alignment guy said the rear camberadjusted perfectly. Hope this info helps.

no metric bolts

Hi John. Don't buy metric bolts for this application. The betric bolt will slide around inside the shaft of your newly purchased camber arms, and you will never be able to set the camber in one spot. It needs to be somewhat of a tight fit. Use the materials that came in the kit. I know the instructions that it comes with are poorly written, so you will need to take a good look at all the parts and figure out where everything goes. It's not too difficult, but you don't want to put it together incorrectly.I sent you a PM, I can call you and help you through the installation process. You will need a small die grinder, or an angle drill with short drill bits before you get started, so don't take the car apart untill you get the proper tools. Hope I was helpfull.

ANOTHER GROUP BUY ON

Due to very high demand for the Lensolo Camber Arms, there is another group buy going on. 5 sets have been paid for already out of 10 required so there are 5 more to go.

Email me at leonard.carson@gmail.com for questions and details.

They have been shipped out to me and I should have them in 6-10 days. It will take me a couple of days to box up and get them out to everyone.
