I have no car to deal with guys, so I cannot make it happen until I get a volunteer.

pics look promising. Im sure we can make it worth while financially for the company that nails this. We have members replacing front tires every 5-10k

Stupid question but I assume parts for air suspension and non-air will be different right? What about AWD?

If tire wear is the issue it may be more related to toe issues rather than camber though. Softer bushings seem to be the leading cause in the IS and GS platforms. Perhaps I can find a simpler solution that a fully adjustable arm.

Any progress? I need more negative camber. Rather install adjustable arms than modify body.

Any updates on this? I love in Colorado Springs and I can bring my car to Denver on the weekends if you still need help.
