I am very interested if they add camber. Went to the Speciality Product website and there is a part number and installation instructions but no pictures.

Cheers,
DJC

SPC has been around a long time. They make decent stuff for the prices they charge.

We have carried the stuff for awhile now.

I called SPC yesterday. They said the first shipment will be in 2 weeks for the upper arms control.

I think the balljoins on the SPC are replaceable. The upper arms control cost around 4 bills. I dont know how much the balljoints should cost.

It's a pretty good price too. $399 looks like for a complete set left and right. It's around $400 for a single OEM upper control arm so once these come out I'd give it a try. a +2 degree camber correction should be more than enough for a 2-3" dropped car.
