So I stupidly mangled two camber adjusters when trying to cut them down from "too long" to "fits inside the front upper A-Arm". I've been trying for several months to get someone to sell me more, with no luck on either side of the Atlantic. I even drew them up in 3D CAD and sent them out for quotes (but I don't want to pay $200 each)
Does anyone have any advice on getting small parts? Any extra camber adjusters anyone wants to sell? Thanks!

Front or Rear? For Front they're just Transit drag links, for the rear you could get some threaded bar welded on to CDS tube?

Maybe I'm using the wrong terminology, which might explain one of the misfires I got from England.
I'm looking for the cut-down hex stock that rides inside the A-arm - the part that when turned, pushes the drag link in and out of it to change the camber. It appears like it might be 303 stainless steel.
Thanks!!

The aluminium ones have had historical issues that are well documented elsewhere on the forum. Best going for steel imho

OK - I'm back to disappointed. Their website says "Your IP Address indicates that you are in the United States or Canada and we are currently unable to sell into those countries". Does anyone know of a source that does allow sales to the USA?

Just give them a call, I'm sure they will help you out.
If not, Let me know what you are after I could buy them and post them over.
If you have a paypal account you could transfer the money to my account that way.

Rally design do not sell to USA due to liability claims of the past. As Mawdo said, DO NOT GO FOR ALLY ONES, RTR supplied them but the heads can shear off and the thread is easy to mash with steel into ally.

Am I doing something wrong that I can't send a private message on this site? I'd like to take someone up on an offer posted here, but I get "You may only send messages to staff members." when I try. My string of problems is getting embarrassing... O.o

Unfortunately you can only use the pm function when you have made 20 posts, it is to stop spam messages. So you could generate another 10 posts, build diary or something, so we can see what you are up to Or you could use name link button, five buttons along on the top right set. You pick the user eg OnrampApex and they get a notification message to alert them to your post. They will be able to pm you if they have the post count and after that you will be able to reply.
