    True, but based on those measurements the upper balljoint will move outwards a significant amount. Couldn't hurt to elongate at least the front mounting point for the LCA since that one affects the camber the most.... ill be doing it while I have the control arms off.

    Sounds like a great idea. I wish we had spoke about this prior to installing my new LCA's.

    But did you know that the front bolt was slotted before you took them off? I didn't realize it until you told me since the bolt heads completely cover the slot..... I didn't think of doing this until you mentioned that.

    Did I know it was slotted? Well sort of because I knew that all the adjustments were made at the lower control arms on our XK and it just wouldnt sound right to me to have the rear slotted and the front just a fixed hole.

    Sold my front guard today and used the $$ to order the RRO UCAs. Lurking on JG looks promising... member reported camber readings at 0 and this at full extension (OME, so expect the spindle to still come close or hit with a spacer lift)

    So basically at full extension they dont come in contact with the coil/isolator like my JBA UCAs correct? The mounting bolts for the ball joint are in upside down.
