    TMS camber plate 60mm spring perches NLA

    its been a wild, years long journey of hope and frustration that's finally come to a sad end
    i've wanted to run Turner Motorsports hybrid camber plates on my TCK suspension for years but their 60mm spring perches have been eternally out of stock. after countless (mostly contradicting) stories from TMS about how they source/produce the perches and why the ETA is always 6 months out, i finally caved in, took advantage of a sale they were having, and put in an order for a set

    fast forward to now, just got an email saying my orders been cancelled because the perches are no longer available, browsing their site, it looks like they've been removed from the available perches (2.5inch still available and in stock)

    Damn, sorry. Is this just for the hybrid plates? Fodi made a post (and Kdawg) comparing the plates. Seems like the perches are different between the street plates and hybrid?

    Wonder if it'd be worth finding a machine shop to make a pair?

      I assume Ground Control would sell their 60mm perch a la carte. You would just need to raise your collar about 3mm to get the same ride height and bump travel as you would with the Turner perch. https://nam3forum.com/forums/forum/m...898#post184898

        The Turner perches should be the same between street and hybrid. They just adapt a 60mm spring to the OE style bearing. And the GC perches would be functionally the same.

        And yes, they would be an easy part to machine.

          Wow, so from ECS's POV, how could it make sense to no longer offer a camber plate compatible with the very popular/common 60mm spring? I guess 2.25" is enough? Glad I got my 60mm perches from them when I did (2020 iirc).
