Those two companies are at opposite extremes,
GP sports (for a 100% new part) = $1000 + shipping from Japan + LCA mods
3up (for a cut and rewelded 100% used part)= $250 +shipping from Japan +LCA mods +bumpsteer mods
Ours is actually more like the Good Road knuckle because we both sell parts with a service by adding a CNC machined piece to the OEM knuckle without cutting it.
Good Road (OEM+welding+CNC part) = $550 +shipping from Japan +LCA mods
Parts Shop MAX (OEM+welding+CNC parts) = $400 includes both shipping to USA and an adjustable lower arm stop with a fully boxed reinforcement.
MAX is better than Good Road because its cheaper, 2x stronger and has more bumpsteer correction & all the LCA mods are included.
The bottom line is that with the MAX Super angle knuckle package you get more for your money.
The second generation of our super low ride height camber arm makes its debut and is in stock now at Parts Shop MAX USA!!!
There is a small price increase of $20 over the first generation arm making this one $200/pair.
The new MAX RUCA still features the same angled adjuster tube to clear the chassis but the similarities to gen. 1 end there.
Its hard to believe we packed so many features into a low tech item but somehow we managed to make an arm that is quite a bit more complex when it comes to the new angles and radii. The production jigs/tooling for this item are suprisingly complex too.
List of improvements:
1. Cleaner "stacked dime" style welds.
2. Tube wall thickness is increased by +1mm while the overall diameter is slightly smaller to prevent the need to reduce the end of the tube near the adjuster weld point.
3. The new RUCA now has a larger radius uniform continuous bend throughout the arm for increased strength and even stress distribution. The larger radius makes this gen II arm compatible with more brands of coilovers on all s-chassis cars. We had to make a 90 degree notch in the tube where it connects to the bracket to accomplish this.
4. The bracket length is increased to prevent the inside of the bracket from contacting the rear knuckle during suspension travel on extra low cars.
5. The length of the tube was increased to maintain more thread contact inside the adjuster for super low cars maintaining around 1 degree of negative camber.
6. There is an arched up sweep in the arm relative to the bracket and adjuster. This provides plenty of additional clearance between the arm and the axle boot which used to rub a little on extremely low cars with the gen 1 RUCA.
