My toe is shit
Hey guys, quick q:
So i ended up getting rear SPC camber arms, but my specs are out by like 3 degrees, so when the alignment guy was adjusting my camber, he couldnt bring it back into spec without fucking up the toe.
So im figuring i need a toe arm, but do i also need to buy the third arm? Im just trying to figure this out now so i dont have to waste time and money ordering seperately.

Highlighted is the toe arm from what i understand, the closest to you is the camber arm, and what i currently have adjustable, and the lowest bar is a stationary arm (?)
Those in the know... thanks in advance

Yes, purchase the entire set, just one arm doesn't do squat for you (at least for me it didn't, and I only went 1.2" down).

I've noticed that unfortunately the suspension Falling out of specs can be a very individual thing. I'm gonna get all three arms and I guess i should have gotten them all in the first place. Thanks bro's

Reading most everyones post on here, you guys are right, all our cars are basically unique. Some with the same drop need all arms, some just camber arm, some none. It all depends on the wheel too. Some need the arms to space and tuck the wheel/tire in the fender. im hoping when im ready, eibachs, would require just the camber arm.
btw, the end of that red bar, chassis side. isnt that an eccentric? so when you turn the bolt it either pushes or pulls the toe arm?

it is, but with camber in spec it didnt give the guy enough play to bring toe all the way in, toe and caster arms on the way now ~_~

I think he was able to keep toe in spec with like 2-3 degrees of neg camber.
Some of you might be cool with that, but for me personally, fuck that shit
I got a fucking warranty I need to be concerned about.

The third arm is the Trailing Arm or Lateral Arm. For anyone looking to get more then 1 degree of camber adjustment, it is necessary to purchase all three arms. Otherwise, as you experienced, you will not be able to get both Toe and Camber correct. If you installed just the two arms (instead of three), you would run into set-back issues. Make sense?
