    Okay, went out and looked at my car and the rods are bent. Why? How? and where do I get replacements and how much? Are there any Heavy Duty (Super Duty lol) replacements?

    I went to the dealer and they call them camber rods, though I could be wrong.

    I ended up buying some used ones from the wreckers. Apparently they are a "dealer only" part. The dealer wanted $199 each. I called the dealer on the american side, and they wanted $103 each (big difference eh?). The wreckers sold me 2 for $25.

    Head rebuild gasket set is $490 through crappy tire yet I got more than that amount of gaskets for $250 down in the states.

    I know theres a company that sells "performance" versions. Can't remember the name. Perhaps someone else can chime in on this.

    I always called them lateral arms. I dunno...

    But I do see that WBody Store sells oversized arms:
