Sucks about the SPC , they need to disclose that info .
CPP is a US made product which I liked so far very happy with them . El Camino now steers as tight as my 2019 commuter.
I did notice my ride height looks to be about 1" lower now . Not a bad thing , but now thinking about cutting my eibach rear springs to get her level .
Any reason you went with CPP over UMI or other brands?
 
Price , availability and USA made . I am trying to find the link where it says In house manufactured .

That price is really nice compared to others. I just submitted a request for more information of what geometry was changed between the factory arms and these.

What size (diameter/width) wheels?
The previous rims I do not recall the offsets but they were 14x7s (I had to use one inch spacers up front) and 15x8s in the back is what the current owner used I just changed the mags last year. Right now I am currently using 15x7s up front and 15x8s in the back. If I remember rightly the front wheels I added a quarter inch wheel spacer and longer studs to give me some clearance and the back wheels I use the one inch spacer and took a little bit off the studs to make the rims fit because I couldn't get the offset I wanted. I'm not too sure about wheel spacers on the drive tires but I'm not cranking serious horsepower out of it so I'm not too worried the attached pics are the wheels I ordered from jigs I did swap out my center caps with the old mags.

Please post somewhere what info they give you.

I have to admit that the ARB/sway bar I bought from them is a quality looking piece and is a direct bolt in. The price was better than anything else I found.

That is a great price for tube a-arms that include ball joints.
 
Unfortunately most young people want a quick fix answer and don't even bother getting dirty. Ever watch a kid try and fix something? They go right on to the phone and spend more time scrolling looking for the fix rather than crawling under there and actually LOOKING at the problem. Us old guys would drive an hour to help a friend fix something. We would ask the questions on a site like this. I belong to this one, a Jeep site, a Cobalt site, and a Boston Whaler site. Because that is what I own and want to maintain. The kid will join, ask one question, and disappear. I see this on the other sites as well.
when I jump on Youtube it depends on what I'm looking for. but I get what you are talking about.

thought I was going to have to replace a computer board in a washer yesterday, ran thru LGs support site looking at all possible scenarios, then ran thru Ytube watching for all possible scenarios. saved myself a couple of days and $200 by troubleshooting it that way. then talked to a friend who I mentioned to about some YT video commenters about putting a surge protector on their washers. he replied saying he didn't do that but he did do it on his refrigerator because, of course, it has a computer board in it. great, that gets me thinking I should put one on my frig and my washer.

when I'm on YT I'm basically looking for as many possible scenarios as possible to educate me in general so I don't have to go back and keep troubleshooting.
