Adjustable Tubular Control Arms - alignment issue

[wickedcharger]

I am almost finished with a 5 year Restoration of 68 Charger R/T. I brought the car to the alignment shop. He told me tat he can not get the castor on one side. He said that something is slightly off on the front end. Most likely when the body guy welded and straightened the passenger front frame rail he didn't not get the measurement right.
I was told he could use the Moog offset bushings to get me to fall within spec.

I am wondering if the double adjustment tubular control arms from Magnum Force would be a better alternative.
i think they would give me more adjustability as well as better drivability since I am running modern 18" wheels with radial tires.
Would this solve the problem? Does anyone recommend one of the control arms that would be good in a situation like this? I am trying to avoid taking apart the entire nose of my car.


Found the Moog offset bushings. Also, found these adjustable tubular control arms.
I think they might be a very good option for us as they say that they increase adjustability of alignment,

There are many different companies making these.
A few that stood out to me were:


Moog. http://www.jegs.com/i/Moog/719/K710...&cagpspn=pla&gclid=CPPdu62PprcCFeLm7AodplwAxQ

you need to get adjustable arms to really solve your problem.the pst,firm feel,and dillinger you have listed are not adjustable.i have used the rms reilly arms before and they are a great deal for the price,but you need to take them apart to do any adjusting.the bushings work,but depends on how much work you wanna do vs price tag.

Ok, so the Magnum force and the Hotchkis are both able to be adjusted while on the car?
Price:
Magnum force (painted w/ship)- $465.33
Hotchkis (comes painted/free ship)- $686.16


For only $220 difference I want to get whichever one is better.

Also Mancini Racing SPC adj. on the car $240 each, like the ones below... I have some older but still new in the box & never installed, MP adjustable UCA's with poly bushings & grease-able upper ball joints installed, I will sell for $200+ shipping non negotiable price, my cost $399+ balck powdercoated & adjustable to 7*... I'm Going in a different direction, my loss your gain... QA1 also would be worth a look... PM me If you interested...

Ok, so it looks like I'm going to go with the SPC Adjustable UCA's

and a set of PST Adjustable Strut Rods

My alignment shop has recommended the Hotchkis.
Does anyone know how they compare to the SPC?
Thanks

Hotchkis Adj. Tubular UCA's

My alignment shop has recommended the Hotchkis.
Does anyone know how they compare to the SPC?
Thanks

They look nice, I have ever used any... they are also $856.95 for a set... about $270 more than the SPC's for a set... I think the SPC's are more adjustable & you can do the adjustments while they are mounted to the car, not have to remove any UCA bolts to adjust them, just take weight off the car & loosen the jam nuts, then do your adjustments...
