Just like the title says, my passenger side ridetech upper control arm is hitting my Kooks LS swap header when shimmed out to achieve -1 degree of camber. This is in a 69 Camaro with full ridetech suspension. I was running the same setup last year, but I was using the Guldstrand mod holes. I now want to try the car with the stock holes and I ran into this problem.
The only thing that I find strange is that I had to use about 1/2" of shims on both the front and back to even get to -1 degree of camber. I'm wondering if the fact that I'm using the old version of their upper arms might be my problem. These are the arms that were around before they had coilovers and were setup for air suspension. They did not have the slotted cross-shaft holes. Does anyone know if Ridetech has shortened the arms or made any other adjustments in the newer version of their upper control arm?
