Points to consider.
Note that longer 1.5 Deg Neg camber arms won't give you 1.5 Deg of Neg camber. It will give you 1.5 Deg less camber than you have now. If you currently have 2Deg of Pos camber you will end up with 0.5 Deg of Pos camber. If you want to end up with 1.5 Deg of Neg camber they will have to be custom made to a specific length or be adjustable.
You also have to check the amount of thread engagement of the steering tie rod ends as apparently you can end up with very little thread engagement after doing the toe out adjustment after fitting the longer arms.

I believe Triumph Spitfire tie rod ends fit, and are a bit longer. If you can find them.

Karcraft also has Mini ones with longer thread, $40 each though.

Bear in mind though, that 0.5 positive camber is still better than 2.0*

I have some 1.5 arms waiting to be fitted to my car when I have the time, I would be happy if they gave me neutral camber. The guy I bought them off said it gave him 0.5* negative on one side and around neutral on the other. He ended up buying adjustable arms, but the Mini Spares Au ones because he seemed to think they would be easier to engineer - something to do with Au Standards or something, I forget.

I seem to recall that you could use AH Sprite tie rod ends because they were longer, but cost about the same as the long Mini ones.... Hmm maybe they are the same


Anto.

Wouldn't the thing to do be to get the adjustable ones use them for a bit until you decide what setting you want and then get your originals modified to that length

Then you can sell off the adjustables to someone else to do the same, or they can do the circuit of people who want to borrow them

Well if you think about it adjustable bottom arms are probably just as illegal as adjustable tie bars, which you need regardless. Unless you also weld up new tie bars as well.....

No sorry! Sprite ones are totally different - much bigger diameter and heavier all over.

Usually you can rposition the "washer" on tie bars with a little turn and burn to get the right caster.
