To be clear, my comment is about the fineness of adjustment, not the adjustment range. So, "how much" isn't what I was responding about, it's that you can't get less than a half-degree change.

Agreed, and I do my own alignments as well.
Edit: swing and a miss here i clicked reply and didn't type anything lol.

Dang, not what I wanted to hear. This is my dad mobile/tow rig, I'm keeping it basically stock. Gents what about using new bolts with OE cam plates? Also super impressive that you both do your own alignments that's a level of self reliance I don't possess.

If you've never had issues with stock components before, you're likely not going to start having issues with stock replacement components now.

Thanks for the compliment. It's kind of a PITA, but doing it myself is satisfying.

I feel that, that's why I'm going to do these control arms on my own. That and I'm a tight *** so for $600 and a weekend or two I'll gladly not pay 2k. That 1400 savings is like... three weeks of day care lol.

For the price i might buy a set and see what I think. Still open to discussion, won't be doing the repair until like April or May.
