An adjustable length front control arm to make camber adjustments?

More specifically the front lower control arm, that mounts to the rear of the front spindle and replaces OEM Part no. FR3z-3078C and FR3z-3079C. looking at the part it will have an impact on both camber and caster in the front end.

Do you guys have a release date and pricing info yet?

Most important fact is, that this control arm relocates the front roll center on lowered S550 Mustangs to almost the original position.

Also, it will give you a little more camber and caster.

Plus, less deflection or more control under cornering.

Really like this, but that statement is based on how much lowering? 1"? This should also change camber gain in cornering, can you comment as to its effect there?

This is indeed a very interesting part. Been very happy with my rear camber arms so far so this would be a great new addition.

It's the right frammaranitich. Left is the mirror opposite.

Adjustable from 0 to a 1.5" inch.

1” lowered is ideal, although the lower the vehicle is, the further from stock roll center you will be. You are correct that camber gain will change (increase), however the vehicle will also roll less, which will inherently reduce the camber change.

Put simply, as roll center is raised, camber gain increases, roll decreases (which leads to less camber change). The inverse is also true; as roll center is lowered, camber gain decreases, roll increases (which leads to more camber change).

Thanks Mike! That is all what I expected just wanted to confirm. You will also be able to run a little less front bar or get away with reduced static camber with this (meaning more braking grip available). :thumbsup:
