I have Hard Race fitted for around 50k without any running problems. Not impressed with anti corrosion. However with anything like this once adjusted it’s rarely touched and if you think it needs adjusted then it’s worth looking elsewhere for wear.

I wondered that too, I think it's the little allen bolts with the little nylon nuts that "jank" them for me (though I have nothing to base that on, just the pictures), makes them look "fragile" almost... that said, they seem to have good things said about them and SpookX5 is running them with good results it appears.


I'm doing the rear body bushing on mine this spring and have been thinking about just taking it all the way and doing adjustable arms and all while I'm in there. Looks like I'm going to have to start doing some research.

I just refreshed the entire rear end and still can't get alignment where I want it. Ordered the Hardrace camber/toe links and will redo. Question for those running spacers (30 rear, 25 front), do you align with the spacers off and then re-install? I've never aligned with spacers and don't know exactly how the alignment racks work. I've got the 20" for summers on a 4.4. Thanks!

Align with spacers in place

Thanks. I should get the arms in a couple of weeks.

Just got adjustable camber arms from Russia. They look like the Hardrace arms. Waiting on weather to coincide with when I have time to get them installed. When I put the coilovers in and lowered my truck 2" they couldn't get the rear camber into spec. I'll put these on and get it aligned. I'm hoping I won't need to put the toe adjustment arms on. Looking at my current adjustment it looks like there's room left in the toe adjustment. We'll see.

I agree the nuts look janky. I added a big washer to spread the load.

Hard race arms arrived - quicker than I thought. It might be a bit before I get them on and get it aligned. We'll see what I can squeeze in.

I noticed you're in Ontario and I'm assuming Canada and not Cali

Did you get them local or from the US?

I've sent the hard race people email from their facebook as well as IG and haven't received a response.
