Default Tubular upper control arm camber correction.

Right now I have Bell Tech drop spindles, Bell tech sport shocks with adjustable spring perches, and factory coils.

I installed a camber correction kit from belltech, but I still can't get enough positive camber for correct factory alignment. It's wearing the insides of the front tires.

I am considering installing tubular upper control arms, not only for the camber but also to add a bit of flair to the looks underwood. I will probably have them chrome plated.

Anyway, is there any arms that will work best withy setup?

I believe I'm at a 4.5 inch drop. The truck has a flip kit out back and a slight performance rake. I'm not interested in changing the stance.

Thank you in advance.

Which arms did you use?

I did use Google. For about five days. Is there an actual search that you recommend? There isn't much out there telling of the quality of the arms.

Isn't much out there telling of actual experience with the arms. You say you achieved an additional two degrees?

Was that arms and a a correction kit of some sort?
