Nice!

If wanted, is it possible to put some camber change in those knuckles? Say if one was wanting to lower their ride height. Not sure if I'm off base here, or not.

They retain all factory adjustibility. Stock allignment cams are reused. You don't want to put a shorter ear on top nessisarily due to loss of steering axis inclination angle. With a lower steering axis inclination angle there's more load put into the steering system. Then your tierods, steering box, and ps pump would suffer. I personally think a better option may be to do it in the cut and turn vs knuckle geometry but so long as the angle relationship is maintained it would be possible. It's a slippery slope though because I'd need to make knuckles in 1 degree increments to perform the cut n turn functions. This would be a mess logistically because people would want to exchange knuckles with each allignment and talk about a head ache on my end. The knuckle I designed retains all factory geometry relationships so it can be used with anyone's brand of beams and your geometry would be good so long as whatever fabricator built them knew what he was doing and did the cut n turn correctly.

At some point without the cut n turn in the beam end, the ball joints would be at too steep of an angle to function. so depending on lift height from factory it would no longer be possible.

Version 2 is being built right now. I think it will look tough as well as be very very strong.

LOL, Nothing like newly painted parts to make the rest of your rig look like a rust bucket.
