Are they comparable? Are there other options im missing out on? Any shortcomings to the weltmeister brand?

Go with Tarret. Ira makes very good products and he stands behind what he makes. The new Weltmeister camber plates are nice and they did fix the problem they had. However, I would rather purchase from Ira over Automotion if I have the choice. beerchug.gif

Everything Tarret is better than everything Weltmeister. Rebel Racing Products is good too, some of it is Tarrett and some is his own design. Different colors and different prices.

Other options are Tangerine Racing (Racer Chris on this site) or Ground Control.

I never thought that a sway bar was under that kind of a strain to break a drop-link.....:-0

For what it is worth, Weltmeister changed their camber plates since then as this was an issue more than one had. The newer ones have yet to have the same issue.

That said, I'd rather buy from Tarret, GPR, Tangerine or PMB if I can.

It's a combination of crappy geometry and cheap hardware. I now have a Smart Racing bar up front and a restored factory rear bar.
