What is the current opinion on the best way to fix rear camber/toe?

MBArts arms or KMAC bushings? I've done some searching and there seem to be positives and negatives of both, especially with the MBArts stuff. I know some of the previous gen arms had issues with clearance and breaking bolts. Couldn't find anything about the newer gen stuff. As far as the KMAC, it seems that they might be a pain to install?

I think I'm leaning towards the KMAC stuff. Anyone know of a better/cheaper place to get them than KMAC direct? $75 for freight is killer!

Yes, I saw this comment from you in numerous threads, but you never expanded on your opinion.

I have posted photos in the past. They don't fit, the adjusters bend and fail. They are garbage. I still have them on a shelf in my shop with all the damage on them from driving them for 50 miles

Quite the opposite here... 20k trouble free miles, including many runs down the 1320, countless laps around Laguna Seca and Thunder Hill, and 2 Sonoma D events...
