I think they do but they require you to weld in new strut tower boxes.
Try SRP

One note: if you're getting struts custom made, or even if you're raising the spindle on existing struts, you can add static camber without having to get the expensive doo-dads.

He's just saying that when you cut the spindle free from the strut, you can reweld it in the raised position with a little built in camber. A little grinding on the inside will do the trick. Very small changes on the spindle can do a lot compared to having to move the top of the strut.

Be sure to use lots of castor oil when you assemble those.

Great Tip Thom! Do I rub it on my tool wench or the car?

Project935 do you have any drawing with diminsions you would be willing to share??

I found that QA1 makes an adjustable plate to fit their adjustable struts ( the ones I am using at the center of the air ride system ) but I will still need to fabricate a base for them.

Thanks for all the help!
Todd

I have CAD of the plate/sleeve I can send anytime.

I still need to CAD the base on my chassis - might be able to get to it this weekend.

That's super cheap!

You need to make sure it will fit in the general vicinity of the OE shock tower and still allow for a decent adjustment range - my first guess is that they look kinda big.
