        Simply using the treehouse custom mount and bushing OR modifying the stock mount (slotting the holes) and using an offset bushing works for some people.

        However in my case (and a few others), adding just modified mount and bushing is not enough.

        I saw try it first with the treehouse setup or the offset bushing and the slotted mount and see what happens. If you pull it off, great. If not, get the arms.

          if you guys get together and pester Jon enough, the seed has been planted to make a CAB with more offset for you guys running 5-lug swaps without the GC caster plates.

            So what ABS sensors do you use with E36 M3 EVO struts/hubs/brakes at the front and compact trailing arms at the rear ?

            I don't want to lose my ABS :?
