Default swer to skunk2 arm problem

in one of the last posts about skunk2 arms failing, someone put up a ic of an alternative that wudn't slip. unfortunately, it was a pain in the bumm to adjust. well, if u grab ur latest grassroots mag and check out the factory five "spec racer from hell" article, they have a double a arm front suspension for those bad bous. there upper arm (p. 116) looks to be adjustable for camber and maybe caster. but if someone could build this arm to fit an integra/civic, it would cure the skunk2 slippage woes.

after the appropriate mods,mine do not slip. of course i check them every event, but that is a preventative measure.

thats good that urs held up. did the bumpy nyr lot loosten them at all?? the finishing turn on day 2 was a front end killer. i know kevin's failed again after he changed out the stock hardware for the new set-up with better washers and bolts. and thats just autocrossing. maybe he just has too much power for them=]
