    Can get the same results from a manual mill if you know what you're doing, just takes longer.

    ...is it necessary to have those camber plates that thick?. Or is it just me and they are a regular size? i.e 10mm.

    That is also what I was thinking, like they could halve them and make a paif from one, seems strange, like they would lose that much travel too

    I'm guessing that they wanted it thick enough that the top of the shock won't foul on the chassis if they adjust it all the way out. You have to remember that even in the last photo it is still just a test fit, so there is nothing sticking up from the rosejoint.

    Could be wrong but that would be my guess

    For those who don't know Beau took out round four of the ADGP over the weekend, looks like there was some amazing battles:
