You wouldn't get the geometry improvement but it would be a damn sight cheaper than the spoon set-up.

Potentially could stiffen up old creaky chassis like on EGs or EKs

Just a thought
Yeh, it is an interesting thought... essentially I'm guessing that's what the spoon collars are - just like a crush washer. I might even ask my Dad what he thinks - he's a fitter and turner by trade and has restored his own car (Jensen Interceptor, with a Chyrsler 440 cubic V8 7.2L) a while back and with a lathe at home might be able to help...

Saint - any feedback from your lecturer at college?
