Did I read that you are looking at relocating the UCA mount points? Given how Jake builds these mounts, there is a bit of room to move the mount if you fill in the existing holes.

Also, adjusting caster and camber was relatively easy with this setup. Jake set mine up and machined spacers from 1" stock for the initial alignment. Eric and I used shims to adjust the alignment until we got to the point we wanted (based on Ron's specs), then Eric just machined a new set of spacers to those thicknesses. Worked out pretty well.

While I hate reading the story of Payton's project with Jake, I will say that the measurements on my subframe from Jake were pretty spot on when I recorded them for Ron. At least as accurate as I could measure them. Ron and I never discussed moving the UCA mounts, although I didn't present that as an option (and wouldn't really want to at this stage unless it would make a dramatic difference). Ron has all of my numbers along with one other JRS subframe I think, so I'm sure he will suggest the best changes as appropriate.
