Bent tein camber hat

They're pretty thin and I'm trying to find a stronger replacement. Or any replacement

Any ideas?

I have the tein super drift

you can probably get ground control plates to fit. they have a 1/2" bearing so as long as the tein shaft is M14 or lower (probably) they'll fit with the appropriate spacers. ground control can help you out on the spacers.

Ground Control - Camber/Caster Plate - '86-'91 RX7 (Pair)

they have pillow *****/spherical bearings and torrington bearings. They work great, I have them on my car.

the old mazda motorsports camber plates used to be the same exact design.

Those look pretty nice, but I wonder if it would be cheaper to get a set water jet cut to fit the stock pillow ball, and add castor adjustment like the GC plates

I guess I'll get a quote this week, I'll let y'all know if anyone would want to upgrade they're Tein hats
I just wish they had replacement parts

what part is bent?

they're 2 piece, there is the bearing carrier part and the top plate. if you just need the top plate part you can just get one water jet out of steel in the same outline of the stock aluminum one and just bolt it up to the bearing carrier part.

Yea just the plate is bent, which is why I'm hesitant on buying a whole new pillow ball set up
