do a search on gullstrand mod. its basically lowering the mounting holes for the upper controllarms, it gives a better caster gain.. sort of like a shelby lowering of a mustang.. only its on a 1.gen.. .. and the Speed Tech subframe has elongated holes so it in effect has adjustable camber, and caster gain... only it will be a biatch to dial it in....
taller balljoints will accomplish the same

Is the idea of the slots that you can have the stock UCA mounting or the Guldstrand mod, or is it intended to be infinitely adjustable between the two? Because if it's infinitely adjustable, I agree alignments are going to be painful.

The idea is that yes they are adjustable the upper end of the slot is the stock location and the lower end of the slot is the g mod location, and the alignment will not be a bitch as long as you set the arms in the same location ( vertically ) on both sides. the easy way is if you want More Camber gain set it in the Gmod location if you really don't care set it in the stock location.
if you really want to mess with it your on your own.
Quote. ...and the Speed Tech subframe has elongated holes so it in effect has adjustable camber, and caster gain... only it will be a biatch to dial it in....
it only changes the camber gain. but keep in mind that ride height also plays into it
Correction, thanks tyler, i suppose what i ment was that it mostly affects the camber curve/change but yes it will add caster that could be shimmed out/or back to your chosen setting,
some have asked if the Gmod will work with a tall spindle also like the ATS unit and the answer is no, well not no just not necessary the tall spindle and the Gmod both accomplish the same thing in different ways, feel free to add to the discussion tyler
my comment about adjustable castor gain was thay one could in theory set the shaft at a different anglt than stock as the slots allow lifting the front bolt up. while leaving the rear down... this will give a different castorgain and antidive... and that will... be the proverbial biatch to dial in....

i theory yes... but there is not that much "slop" ( technical term) the shafts really only want to slide parallel in the slots. they might rock(for lack of a better word) 1 deg.
so it really is not something to be concerned about.
