    Camaro offset UCA bushings

    Does anyone have a source for offset UCA's for 4th gen Camaro's? These seem to be unobtanium now!

    Ross.. I don't think you need them anymore. With the ability to slot the bottom control and now the upper control arms, I don't think you would need them.

    I don't have the offset bushings and I have never slotted the upper arms, but you can still get to 2.5-2.7 camber which seems to work pretty well. A tad more might be helpful, but I don't know.

    For future reference in case someone looks up this thread

    7.33.8 All cars may adjust the camber and caster of the front wheels by the use of eccentric bushing at the control arm pivot points, by the use of eccentric bushings at the strut-to-bearing-carrier joint and/or by the use of slotted adjusting plates at the top mounting point. If slotted plates are used, they shall be located on the existing chassis structure and shall not serve as reinforcement for that structure. Some minor trimming of the chassis strut tower opening is allowed to provide for additional suspension adjustment. In lieu of caster / camber plates, late model GM cars may elongate the upper and lower control arm slots for purposes of increasing the caster and camber range.

    Thanks James

    Does anyone make solid bushings for the uppers any more? Does anyone have access to a lathe? I have a set on the shelf we can reverse engineer...

    Thanks Ryan but the ones I was looking for are the offset bushing for alignment adjustments.
