Message	I have been looking at those for a while. Adjusting camber has been something I would like to do, especially since I got new tires, but FUCAs with uninsulated bearings would result in a harsher ride that I want. The day I got my new tires, there was a very nice NA getting aligned with the Z1 FUCAs (unknown version). The technician was complaining that because of the angle the FUCAs swing through, adjustments to camber altered caster. The car had a tension rod design I had never seen before. Looked OEM but was adjustable. Glad to hear these FUCAs allow a smoother ride that powertrix bearing style do. I hope you long term report is positive.
