Assuming the rack gets put in the right spot relative to the lower A that should seriously fix the bumpsteer mess I am finding with the stock Vette spindles. Do those arms bolt on inline with the three hub bolts? If so, do they clock to the counterbores in some way to ensure the bolts stay centered on the threads? Not a big deal, just for personal info, as I have been considering making my own bolt on arm using those three bolts and just getting longer fasteners, tho' I would need to bore out the centers so my CVs could fit thru on the rear...
sorry, also, who makes that bolt on piece?

By bolt on piece if you mean the brake spindle duct plates, those are from LG Motorsports.
Payton knows the long arm JRS setup inside and out (for better or worse) and much more than I do. I do have him beat in the kitten department I am certain.
Your car is coming together nicely Tim. Payton and I will load up and meet you in the middle of USA one day.

Jake had the arms milled. He now builds them out of DOM. For the most part they are the same location as the C5 as to retain the same Akerman. They are moved down because the rack is moved down for packaging on that subframe and to keep the bump at zero. They bolt to 2 of the holes on the hub and one on the upright itself.
Blue Mustang Ron (Good Ron) has the same subframe in his AMX, but moved the motor back far enough as to run the rack in the stock Corvette location and is running the uprights as cast from GM. Same concept you are using from your build photos, not sure why you are having bump problems unless the pivot points on your rack are different than on your LCA.
