My buddy sent me these brackets camber kit for me to test in the US. Anyone would like to test it out?
Kit comes with
4 brackets and couple nuts and screws
1 bracket for each side

ONLY fits LS460(L) RWD ONLY

 

I'll try it.

 

They look like the OEM optional brackets for the front control arms that change the camber only very slightly more positive. I have them installed on my car, it moved the camber maybe .25* more positive

If they're not the OEM pieces, maybe these alter it even more ?

 

I'm surprised figs hasn't come out with something yet. Wishful thinking I guess.

 

I contacted Figs about 6 months ago, they said they had someone working on it but not enough resource.

 

If those are the oem brackets, I did a complete writeup of these about 3 years ago in my Tanabe Experience thread located in the FAQ thread. Includes before and after alignment specs etc

 

They look like the OEM brackets but they are aftermarket I believe. Seems like they replace one bracket at each corner... FL, FR, RL, RR. Interesting...

 

Yes, these brackets are aftermarket.
I guess it supposed to change the fulcrum position of the arm and changes the camber.

Where did I get it? http://www.badmoon-racing.jp

 

How much of a change is it supposed to have?

 

May be a dumb question. But why couldn't we just shim the factory ones?

 

They can't be shimmed because they are bolted to the car through their sides so that shimming would prevent the long cross bolts from lining up. In the pics you can see the crosswise tubes those long bolts go through.

 

They said (0.5 to 1) degree!

 

Seems like slightly better than the alternate 2mm oem brackets. Here is the thread with alignment specs on those with tanabe springs https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=597604

 

Thats some real useful camber change! The Lexus ones are only a 2mm offset and intended only for minor alignment corrections involving steering pull. They give only 1 or 2 tenths degree camber or caster change. These new brackets must have close to 8-10mm offset.

 

Yeah I forgot about the bolts that attach threw the side.
How much for a set of these?
