I've been patiently waiting for someone to make this for the 2nd gen Nissans and just stumbled across this video. Definitely getting some of these for our Frontier build :)
I'm using some other brands OEM cambolts (thinking Toyota, idk had them laying in the shop) but they're the good ones that are 3 piece. Bolt with cam/bolt head made together in 1 piece. Cam washer, 1piece. Nut, 1 piece.
I'm slowly acquiring parts to lift my frontier. Does this kit work with your in house UCAs or are SPCs required? I'm looking at a 2 to 2.5" lift, if that matters
They'll work but normal cam bolts are more strongly recommended for a daily driver. The lockouts only have 3 adjustments (min, middle, max) whereas normal cambolts have a full range of adjustment in between min and max.
What's keeping the bolts from moving though? Do those square ends sit in a ridge or something because Im not seeing what would actually stop them from shifting around.
JBA doesn't make UCA's for the nissans but essentially you would be able to get your alignment close but no completely in spec if the UCA isn't adjustable.
I have sort of a dumb question here - why would I want to control camber on an off-road vehicle? I understand the point for drift-machines, or lowered vehicles to allow 'extra travel' for the tire with negative camber. If my current tires wear nicely already and alignment isn't off, is there a reason to switch to cam bolts? I plan to lift with the full ADO kit, but only a couple inches, nothing crazy. Thanks!
Whether it be camber bolts or a lockout kit like this, you want some sort of adjustment in your lower arms to achieve a proper alignment. Camber bolts and lockout kits help get your camber and caster into spec after installing a lift
@@AlldogsOffroadCoop Ah I gotchya. I figured probably to be helpful to the alignment tech and get a solid alignment. I'm still new to the offroad world and I appreciate all the knowledge transfers!
Same here, I might have to cut them ahahah and replace the bushings. But Ive bought greaceble cam bolts so if I'm able to take them out I think I'll be good for a long time lol

I freaken love the square cam bolts. They're amazing. Thank you.
Wold love to see you add the lockout cam bolts as an option to the suspension kits for the frontier
I can't find the announcement about black friday on your website 😭
Same here

Do you have the same set up for a 2012 Range Rover sport L320

thanks for the explanation..I get it now @@AlldogsOffroadCoop
Are you shipping to Canada ?
What alignment specs are best? 0 degrees camber? How many degrees caster? Do you split caster 1/2 degree for road crown? 1/16 positive toe?
These look great if you have SPC UCAs. How common is it for the SPC adjustable ball joint to slip out of alignment?
Torque to spec and you'll be good to go!
What's keeping the bolts from moving though? Do those square ends sit in a ridge or something because Im not seeing what would actually stop them from shifting around.
they sit in between ridges, yes
What are your thoughts on using this with RC Killa kit and factory control arms?
It can definitely be done! Might take some trial and error to get right however
How would these work with JBA upper control arms??

Shoot, I feel like all vehicles I have this no more wheel alignments lol
But doesn't this mean you could never get perfect alignment
Guys using lockouts will normally be running an aftermarket arm. SPC arms are adjustable at top and will allow for "perfect" alignment.
I can't even get my factory cams out! lol

Welp... Time to jump the Frontier...
