    ix GC camber plates

    Can the GC ix camber plates be used with h&r springs/ koni shocks?

      Is it the OD of the springs?

        The height adjuster kit can drop onto the stock strut without welding or modifying though. I paid $850, there is a discount when ordering together.

        I'm sure you could make an adapter if you have a welder, a drill press, and the motivation.

          So the adjusters would work with stock housings and H&R springs, but not the camber plates?

            yeah, it's just that there's no spring perch that fits stock springs.

            and really, I don't think I would use them with H&Rs anyway. They increase the stack height, which reduces suspension travel - and H&Rs barely have enough travel as it is. On top of that, it's basically a solid block - there's no give, so you'd be bottoming out constantly and have a lot higher NVH. Not a great combo.

            FWIW the build quality on these is awesome. But I'm not sure they are suited to a DD, although I did on mine for a long time..
