your mega arm fits is and 2nd gen gs???

also looking at the arm, if you can not get enough camber out of the eccentric bolt, can you unscrew the jam nut some to push the arm out and give you more camber correction?

So, odd thing about you GS guys is you talk about camber correction...and you mean push the camber more negative to fit larger wheels
I custom build these so I can either add camber or take it out. However if you need to add camber, adjustable toe and trac links are required to keep teh geometry correct and prevent excessive toe in.

It's only the hard core VIP style guys wanting to add more neg camber. They're into stance, not handling performance. If you can accommodate both styles and needs from the two GS camps, then you'll sell more of these.

Yep, I can. I just add or subtract the tubing length to be longer or shorter than stock. I custom build each one...so I can do this. But if things get too busy, that is when it may get complicated and expensive.

If you come up with an improved Lower ball joint, then you might get quite a few interest. Every GS owners here knows about it LOL. And that dinky lil sway end links... so tiny.

you should sell a complete kit at a discount...should do a poll of how many people who wants it.

Also, I would comment that my intro pricing is pretty low already. I do not like to inflate pricing and then offer a special deal but rather price my products so there is a solution for everyone at a price point they want.

The IS is about 1" shorter. But I do not understand your question, these arms are build to be about 3/4" shorter than stock to correct camber. The rod end has about 1" of further adjustment plus the standard eccentric adjustment. so there is plenty of adjustment to do what you want when it comes to alignments. For those that want more negative camber, I would make them even longer..another half inch or so. This would allow a configuration that is longer than stock.
