YES they are diff lengts.. but when you Lower it down with Shorter Lower arms your wheel will be parralle to the side rails of the frame.. or for you people on here.. that means straight up and down.. .. gezzus i need to get out my corvette schematics for you ppls to see how shit moves up and down with the right geometry and still handel right..

still is not equal lenght arms, thats just a front end built with a lower ride height. maybe thats what you mean by rebuilding the front end? just different placement of the arm pivot points?

You could take out all your upper control arm shims to get rid of some of the camber, but then u are gonna have positve camber at ride height wihich is a hell of alot worse.
Basically without redoing the design of the front suspension you are stuck with it.
