Great. You found the thread. Cool. You should be able to get an answer here.

man..I just received my SPC arms today and sure enough, they're the straight ones. I am going air soon and am thinking I may hit my sway when I do....damn.

 

That sucks. But don't list yours in the FS section 'till I get mine sold. LOL.



Seriously, though, I hope you can return yours w/o too much trouble.

Good luck,
Sean

 

I've been getting mixed answers from people here and in facebook groups on whether or not they hit the OEM sway, so I'm not sure what to do yet...I wish b-drizzy would chime in

 

Yeah, I'm no help either. My camber arms went in with my sways and springs.

I do know, however, that the new camber arms with the bend in them fit beautifully. I had them installed Tuesday and they're perfect for my application.

Sean

 

^ SPL arms fit beautifully.

 

And the arms themselves are beautifully made. Really works of art. I'm thinking of investing in a lift for my garage so I can look at them from time-to-time. LOL

My Eibach is being installed this coming Monday with the SPC adjusters. I have OE sways. I'll have the shop measure the clearance after the drop, then as time passes and the springs settle, I'll measure again. I have re-read this thread a few times and can't figure out if it is a case of coupe vs sedan.

Bet you that the Eibach anti-roll kit + Pro springs, when used together, was designed not to touch the STOCK adjusters.

 

^ let us know how it turns out.. you have a coupe with OEM sway and you got the newer style SPC arms (without the bend) ?

 

Correct, no bend.

 

This is the first time seeing this thread. I am lowered on Eibachs and straight SPCs with stock bar looking to get sways. I have no problem...now. This is crap. If you have larger than stock sway bar then you (we) may have a problem. Stillen never asked me if I had AM sways. I asked the difference between curved and straight. They just said SPC is calling for the straight and that the curved were the "old" model. I knew in the back of my mind this was crap. I looked at SPL and SPC sites and wanted to cheap out as usual so went with SPC. I am almost disgusted with being the pioneers for this car without the "specialists" who don't know jack about what the F customer service is or able to answer simple questions.

 

Yep. I cheaped out too with the SPCs. But as usual, the cheap route became the expensive route in the end. I had to swap out the SPCs for the SPLs.

With the added parts and labor, not mention hassle, I could added another really decent mod instead. Like adjustable end-links.

I too, am surprised, that with with SPC's reversion to a straight camber arm, that this wasn't foreseen as a problem. What makes it even more annoying is the marketing pics for the SPCs, in many instances, show a curved arm.

One final b*tch: what percentage of enthusiasts install AM camber arms and sways without dropping the car, whether springs or COs? I don't know but I bet it's a rare breed.

Sean

PS: Speaking of which, I need to go and bump my SPC camber arms in the FS section. LOL

 

Or dropping w/o sways?

 

Well.. I am dropping w/o sways. But I have always been rare/strange/weird.

 

Simple enough to add them later if & when you want them.
I still have OEM sport sways so someday I may upgrade, haven't driven the G enough lately to give it much thought
