ERST adjustable TCA's
I've got my adjustable TCA's to go on my ERST but I've noticed a difference between mine and the ones below
MINE
ADAM BLACK RS's
Mine don't have the spacer part going through the rose joint, is this going to be a major probem or could I space it with something so it sits in the centre...?

The top hat spacers are specific to the rose joint as 1 end of it sits inside. You can't just use the tube from the original TCA or even washers sorry
We have just had a batch of 200 stainless steel ones mader for our TCA's which use a particular sized R/J, go measure your R/J first and we will take it from there
This is how they work - and they are offset for a reason

Yeah I have a set from TAS and they are not offset, resulting in slight rubbing.
Nice piece of kit - essential mod IMHO. You'll see you money back in reduced tyre wear in under 2 years if you have a lowered car and like track days.

Who here actually uses what type for road use on a daily basis?
I'va always been of the opinion that some compliancy is needed for road use and reasonable wear. If you use them, you dont have any on the bottom arm at all. Surely, coupled with hard bushing in the rest ... and low profile tyres, the ride harshness will be a high price to pay for better camber and tyre wear?
