Has anyone checked to see what kind of camber adjustment these offer? Im considering scrapping my captive rotor setup for a set of GVR4 knuckles and brakes and I want to make sure I can get enough adjustment from these.

I'm doing that swap very soon on my car, so I'll let you know how it turns out. I predict that I'll have to max them out all the way to get the camber back to normal. Right now I have them set straight up, and I still have some negative camber up front because my car is lowered about 2".

I dug some 92-96 Expo/Summit front knuckles out of my parts stash the other day and noticed that they are very similar to the 3g knuckle. The tie-rod end points down with the nut on the bottom just like the 3g csm's These are 4 x 114.3 and non captive. GVR4 rotors and twin piston calipers bolt right on. These should be a better fit than the GVR4 parts and much easier to find in the yards.

Just got mine in the mail. They are a really nice piece. I'm so glad I was able to get a set of these, I think that they will work really well. Thanks again Yoishfab for making these up, keep up with the good work. Vehicle Wraps

You have to be very careful with thiose knuckles because the steering arm is much shorter than the CSM/GVR4 knuckles

or you could just use 4G knuckles, no positive camber issues with them. GVR4 rotors and calipers bolt right onto them as well. you can even press the hubs out of the Expo spindles and press them into the 4G ones, and keep your 4x114.3 bolt pattern.

I have some 4g knuckles with the 4x100 bolt pattern waiting to go on my colt. Just thought this would be a better alternative to the GVR4 knuckles but I had no idea the steering arms were that much shorter.

So the stock turbo model caliper fits on all these? and 4g knuckles work the best, with no modification???

Sorry to reopen this thread. Ive been searching about this upgrade...
