The only application I can see is for koni's.
I currently have agx's. Did you need the circumfrence diameter?

I need the diameter of the threaded portion as well as the length of this portion.

Around 3 degrees I think.

I need to know what is more important, caster or camber. I get get a ton of negative camber out of my plates but it restricts the caster and vice versa. I need to know what the maximum horizontal movement is needed in caster. Right now it is able to move 0.2" left and right. If we need more I have to pull the camber in a bit.

How much is a "ton" in degrees exactly? Can you get 3 degrees? I think after 3 degrees is the point of diminishing returns in general right?

Well as you know it is impossible to know the amount of degrees we are able to move the strut due to the unknown overall length. do you have a length of your strut assembly to the center of your hub? then I can give you a better idea.

Blue, from my point of view, caster is more important. Lots of static camber is great, but with the Macpherson strut, it difficult to maintain that as you turn the wheels from center (plus you are not optimizing the tire contact patch, blah blah blah). Having more Caster helps compensate for the design of the Mac setup, and if you basically run a 2-1 ratio of caster to camber, you'll end up with a fairly good handling front-end.

P.S. the numbers I need are 2.0 static camber, 4.0 caster

Ill see what I can do. if you think about the setup and the design it is very difficult to ge the caster out of the ca due to the hump in the tower, it limits the horizontal movement of the mount.

brian...if i send you the OD of the threaded section on the AGX's and the height of that area as well you can make them to fit...i would like these because my tein ones don't work well with the G/C AGX combo

thanks awsome work by the way and the rear upper mounts are awsome
