King or Skunk2 - very easy to adjust. You can do it at the track with a jack and a 5mm allen key.

I have the Skunk2 kit and it's pretty easy to adjust. But I won't suggest doing it at the track tho because everytime you mess with the camber, the toe would go out of line too....

Lemme ask this question.

King Motorsports, Front: $400, Rear $375.

versus

Skunk 2 Front: $190, Specialty Products: $100.

Both products look to be the same style... is there that big of a quality difference?

Any problems with the Skunks Slipping?

I've got two of the King kits and a guy I share the garage with has the Skunk.

The weld gusset on the King kit appears to be much more "beefy" than the Skunk. The ball joint looks to be of higher quality than the Skunk. The Ball joint plate is definately more "beefy" on the King unit.

Often times you get what you pay for. I'm not saying that is the case here, but in general that is true.

I agree you get what you pay for, that's why I brought it up. Skunk makes a pretty decent product though....

King


Skunk


Notice the reinforcement plate on the bottom side. The King unit goes further back. I believe the King is a modified stock piece and the Skunk is their own stamping. One last thing is that the King kit comes with the bushings and connection points. The skunk requires you to use your old one.
