    Thanks I am going to wait after reading 15 pages of how they have had nothing but issues from clearance, alignments.

    I was very interested in the JBAs but was waiting to hear some reviews. Thank goodness I waited. You would think the R&D would have been done prior to release:facepalm:

    Camburgs for me as well. I wasn't aware of the availability issue. How hard is it set up a group buy? It'd be nice to get a little discount.

    Contact YotaDan at Wheelers and ask him if he wants to set one up on them.

    I contacted him today to buy a set and he has none. So when he gets some I am in. Even better if you can get a Group Buy going

    I'll pass on a GB, I may be picking up a used set here soon that just need new ball joints pressed into them.

    Which is why I'm interested in alignment numbers

    Anybody, Camburg UCA with ball joint final alignment numbers would be nice.

    I was able to get 2.2-2.3 degrees of positive caster, 0.1 degrees of positive camber with my Camburgs. I do not have an alignment sheet to scan for you guys. If you went closer to 0.5 degrees of camber, you could easily get a higher caster number (higher than 2.5 degrees).

    One of the benefits i saw of the JBA arms was the baljoint that had 90* of movement. But after doing some research uniballs with misalignment spacers have anywhere from 60-70* of total movement, and dont quite limit travel.

    So i contacted SPC light racing to see what their fully adjustable UCA's ball joints offer and they state 82* of total movement which is WAY more than plenty. I might end up going that route as i wanted to keep a ball joint style joint for maintenance reasons but needed more flex.

    Thank, a little more caster would be nice, but still reasonable.

    Yeah, I was hoping for more as well, but I didn't want too much camber either.
