These are hot but it was a long long wait. It will be a couple months now until I shake the car down with them. Camber/caster adjustable with coaxial hats (no more bending springs). Very nice pieces. No I cannot make them for you guys cheaper. There are lots of nice R&D in them from the replaceable bearings x 2 and the bronze bushings. Not to mention the anodizing and more! Support RRE and place your order rather than cheaping out on some shitty ones. ;)

Those are nice. At least thes units won't split like the factory unit (i had another one separate on me a few weeks back... Stupid design...) I'd almost consider a set for the build up but I hate RRE. I know there is someone in OZ that makes them I'll just source my set from there...

These plates do something most don't (like Tein, Cusco, etc). They keep your springs from bending at large camber angles like the -3+ degrees I'm going to be running up front. They also use a 2nd bearing to eliminate the load on the spherical bearing that it's not designed to take. This results in a design that is very long lasting and cheaply fixable should you wear out one of the parts that's *designed* to wear out. It also uses a bronze bushing to eliminate any wear on the shock shaft.

They are expensive yes, but if you really want to race your car a part like this is great. You can keep a 2nd set of wear items in your race bin and never worry about not having what you need due to catastrophic failure of a hard to replace (at the track) spherical bearing. I only wish I could try them out right away :D

$290 is not that much considering the time put into them. Buy enough of them and the price will drop!
