Adjusting UMI Control Arms?
what is the process for adjusting front upper and front lower control arms. there both 2way adjustable. do i make them the same lengths as the stock ones and go from there.. cause i notice that the aftermarket k member that came with the kit has wider slots for more caster and camber adjustments then factory. a lil lost cause this is the first time i dealt with a front suspension this complex, adjustment wise lol.

Hello
First I would like to thank you for your business with UMI Performance! We pre set our control arms to factory length you shouldn't have to adjust them at all. All you have to do is install them and then take them to a alignment shop. If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I will be more than glad to help!
Thanks Again

Yea they are close to right when they are shipped. For my car though, the right front was not able to be able to be adjusted within the limits for the caster. So I'm gunna pull it off and adjust it a little bit it doesn't need much.

Just got the upper and lower control arms and the viking coilovers. Took it to Firestone for an alignment and they said that they have no way to adjust the camber and canter. Car is pulling right a little. Plus I don't want to have uneven wear on the tires. Could they be adjusted?
It's on 2002 Z28 by the way.
Thanks
