[DeTomaso] a arms

[Julian Kift]

Personally I would do/have done the modification to the front upper a-arms for increased caster, by doing so you can incorporate a camber lock which if purchased separately is a chunk of the cost of having the a-arms modified.

 

I also spent a little extra and went for the adjustable upper rears on the premise that I'd rather spend $700 once and know I'm good if I need more adjustment.
