Zac,
I meant that the price is based on exchanging lower control arms for
premodified ones. They do use adjustable radius rods to adjust caster,
which are totally new items (not exchange)
The modified control arm (cut and shimmed) kit (if offset tops dont give you
enough -ve) is approx 350, and the adjustable radius rod kit is approx 150
(dont quote me tho)
- Tom

Uh I'm not so sure adjustable lower control arms adjust caster?
You need the adjustable caster rods which must come in that $500 kit
