    Nice adjustable rear upper control arm -2 to +4 deg.

    found this online:
    http://www.spcalignment.com/componen...AFrom&to=USATo




    $162 (each I think)

    You can do this with shims and longer bolts but if you have the $ these are nice

    I have them on my lowered hatch and these are well worth the cost. the ball joints are easily replaceable and the strength would greatly out perform the stock stamped arms. I paid about 110 each at Napa listed one as spc and another as Napa brand both the same part same maker.

    rear camber is not too bad unless you are dropped more than 2 inches. also mods please move this to the suspension section

    like Coupe said, the best thing about those arms is that you can service the ball joints. Another member on here, Sam, did manage to service the stock ball joints. But IIRC he said its a pain in the ass to do.

    Having the rear adjustable arms in addition to the front prelude arm swap would make it worthwhile to properly lower a 3gee.

    I found these on Rock Auto by Raybestos.

    The ebay unit seems a bit pricey. Unless the Raybestos is just low quality.
