I have a set of new rear arms (adjustable & nonadjustable) that run to the cross member for a 98 camry at my work and I compared them to the both the gt & st rear arms that I have. They differ from the celica arms in that they are a little bit longer (approximately 1-2 inches longer), are thicker around & may have some mounting hardware that are different. They share the same bolt part number for where it attaches to the spindle, the same thickness/dimensions where the bushings are installed and the inside diameter of the metal sleeve appears to be identical (slid it onto the end of the center cross member bolt).

My question is this: has anyone done this before? What do you guys think? Im kind of worried the car will gain camber I cant dial back out of the car (daily driver) but if im going to put new arms on now is the time. I am going to be converting to rear discs on my st and will probably kill the bushings in the arms on my car getting the bolts out. If Im not going to use them they need to be returned soon.

I will post some pictures in comparison later.
