Updated SPC Front Camber Kit - Anyone install yet?

Anyone have feedback on the "new" SPC front camber kits? Any issues? Old issue resolved? Thanks!

Nick at GTHM is stating a "revised" version of the G35 camber kit: "Camber Kits are in stock. We have the new revised version g35 arms that work perfectly on the g37!!!"

So if I order an SPC front camber kit now, all the parts will be the correct ones to fit without rubbing right out of the box with out me having to modify them? Do all the vendors have these new improved versions now, or are the ill fitting ones still lurking retail inventories?

Order from one of the two vendors on the forum that were helping out and posting the updates. If they drop ship from SPC, then they will be right. I bet some of the wrong ones are floating around unless SPC did a recall.

In the event you get the wrong ones, you can exchange directly with SPC but that is a pain.

Exactly my point. I am not disposed to dealing with that situation at all. I want be 100% certain that I get the right part the first time. Kudos to you guys who had the patience of a saint in working through this situation for SPC. I wouldn't have, but I'm glad you did.

Just call Andy at HPAutoworks.

The part number you want is SPC #72130 and Andy shows that part number on his web site [although he has the old adjustment specs].

That is my understanding and what several have posted. Just contact SPC direct.

corrections, it was an extremely painless experience. Jeff@spc took care of everything. no exchange required. he sent me new arms (super fast too).. and to some other people from that other thread too.

So is this actually a "new" part that corrected a design flaw, or is it just using the same part for the G35? (If so, why didn't they do that first?) Also, the "new" part isn't the noisy part with all the washers, is it?

You missed my point. If BB has not ordered, then getting the wrong ones online and having to exchange them with SPC is a pain relative to making sure he gets the right ones the first time. Hence why I posted the part number and suggested he just call Andy.
