The geo brackets for only $100 more then control arms is a better ride quality and you only lose maybe 3/4” clearance
You are still missing the point of altering the geometry.......The most important function of the bracket.

People Work?
The brackets do two things.
They get the caster angle back into spec and they get the suspension geometry back to where it should be.
Control arms will correct caster but they do not correct the changes made to the suspension angles and they allow more forces to the road to be imparted into the rigid frame rather than the components that are designed to mitigate them.

These threads crack me up. Reminds me on that movie Idiocracy where people just regurgitate what they were told without applying any critical thinking before speaking.

So.. caster is off but thrust angle is off too. I look at these numbers and things the likely culprit is the rack it was on as well as likely a tire is low in the front. But I’d be more than fine with those numbers.
