Ingalls SmartArm rear links?

[Ludachris]

Has anyone tried these out yet? I saw them at SEMA and they looked like they're exactly what we've always been needing for rear camber correction. They're selling for about $95 each. Not a bad looking piece:

I have no personal experience with this, but if I remember correctly, people have had some problems in the past with them breaking due to either bad welds or just being too small/weak compared to stock control arms. I also remember seeing that there were 2 different versions (one being newer) and people having more problems with one set. Sorry I can't help you out more.

Heres a link for the pics I got below and some more info:

Here are some pics comparing them to stock control arms.

Also, if you want to find them cheaper, I've always seen a set or 2 new on eBay

I've had them on the car for two years now, no problems at all [I even ran up a curb once while driving ( G/f's fault).] Those seem to be the newer versions, though. They do look kind of puny compared to the stock ones. But as I said above, they've held up well so far.

TSS sells a kit where you can mod your stock arms to adjust camber ... Would have gone for those if they released them before I bought my Ingalls.

Yeah, I've seen that solution, but it didn't seem to be the ideal way of doing it. Sure it may work, but duct tape works for certain things too. I'd rather wait for something to be developed like the Ingalls piece - of course, something that isn't known to break.

they may look puny but tubular steel will always be stronger than thin ass stamped steel. I have these rear smart arms as well and they are well worth it. Plenty of camber adjustment (awesome for roadracing/ autocross setups). Soon enough i'm having both front arms and the rest of the rear arms made with tubular steel and heim joints.

I just got a set and they work great.

I have the TSS camber kit on my daily driver and it's holding up fine after 3+ years of use. On my racecar, I did something similar except welded two, 8"x1/4", thick steel bars (from home depot) on the front and backsides of the upper control arms. I can send pics to anyone who's interested.

I doubt he has a shop anymore, but I second this.

I've autcrossed with the ingalls kit several times now, everything is fine. No surprises, the kit is nice.
