    Garagistic Centered Treehouse Fitment

    I fought with these for a few hours today and this is as close as I could get it. The tree house was completely seated on the control arm and I had the control arm completely free from the spindle. Any suggestions? Considering going to the adjustable mounts from Garagistic or AKG.

      Could your control arm be bent?

      I find it amusing that these are called "tree house" now, even though they haven't been around in like 15 years, and I don't think they even invented them in the first place.

        I've heard similar complaints about the garagistic aluminum "V2" CABs from someone local.
        He was told to "Pry them on with a screwdriver" but he says they're so far off that you can't even put something through the holes to try and pry the two together.

          These things have been around for so long, I wouldn't be surprised if there are lots of Chinese knock offs, which are copies of copies of copies of something made 15 years ago..

            I had a set of ebay "black path" eyeball CABs in ~2014 that came with pieces of aluminum tube instead of bushings. It was unfortunate how halfassed the "bushing" was, but for what I assume was a chinese knockoff, they fit great otherwise.

            I think Garagistic CNCs most of their aluminum stuff in house, but I think the part is in need of a revision.
