Specialty Camber Kit Probs

Hey guys, I just installed my specialty camber kit on the front of my 92 lude. When I was doing the install I noticed that there was about a 1/4" of movement on the specialties and no movement whatsoever on the stock joints. After the install, my steering was all over the place. I reinstalled the stock joints and everything was perfect again, doesn't even feel like I need to have an alignment done, although I plan too anyway of course. I would appreciate any input you guys might have on this. If any of you have specialty's, have you experienced anything like this? Thanks.

Perhaps you didn't tighten the adjustment plates.

That's exactly the problem, you can't. Or, at least it seems that way. If you push the adjustment plate on oneside it doesn't move, but from the other side you could push the entire thing out of the housing if you wanted too. Once installed, that play becomes obvious in the handling. I've called the hotline number, hopefully I'll hear back from em by Monday. Thanks for the input though.

when you install them though, your not going to know what to set them at so your aligned properly. Also make sure you have them lined up on the dot on the control arm.

Man, I dunno then. I've done everything you guys have posted so far. Maybe specialty just sent me the wrong part number or I order the wrong set. If you guys still have it, could you possibly post the part number.
