Well, I got a half answered reply back from ARB today.  They state that the OME struts DO NOT correct camber.  Horses mouth but I've heard and read differently on here and other sources.
Guess KYB struts and camber bolts it is then.  I can have that delivered for less than one OME strut before shipping.

Hrmmmm, might have to call and ask.  Would be the same exact strut.

Exact same strut, exact same spring - if you call OME in the USA they may tell you that the GV was not available in '98 - it wasn't introduced in the US until 99, but every where else had it a year earlier.

Incidentally - that reply was from ARB USA - from a gentleman whose email signature proclaims him to be the sales manager for southeast USA & Latin America

Mine was from "ARB USA Tech & Marketing Assistant" which makes me think he's got no clue.
