    Yeh, it really is, & all the 1/4" spacer does IMO, is give a bit more down travel (flex) to the front A-arms.

    When I FINALLY found an alignment guy who was on board with what I wanted (a COMPLETE alignment...I had to interview several), he took the adjustment to the max allowable with regard to how much threads were on the stock bolts, which STLL didn't get me to the camber specs I was hoping for.

    Some day, when I've got more ambition, I'll figure out what the specs are for the bolts in question, & procure longer ones, so he can add enough shims to get Suzy closer to zero...
