Ok have a camber kit on my car now that is the eccentric cam bolt so it only adjusts +/- 1 degree. My camber is still off by alittle over 1 degree, so i'm going to get an ingalls kit to fix the problem. But here is my concern. The upper A-arm is probably a good 1/2 inch away from touching the inside fender which is metal with black coating on it from what i see. If i get the ingalls its going to puch out that A-arm even further which would make it touch the fender well. Or is my theory pretty wrong? I don't wanna buy it unless i know its going to fit. My drivers side camber is better than the passenger side but its still off. i believe that without the camber kit it was at - 3.2 degrees so i need to use the almost the whole 3 degrees of the kit to get it into about - .8 degrees. :confused:
 
3degrees20 mins? u sure thez set that up right,go have it tested somewhere else

i have 1degree 24 mins of neg camber,i could use a camberkit,but i decided not to, neg 40 to 1 deg 45mins is acceptable(IMO best)

i think u guys worry too much about neg camber,im A TECH and we set up cars to have a ideal amount of neg camber.

my 2 omegas had 1degree 45 up fromt and 2 degrees 40 in the rear of neg camber,(rwd).

and bmws also drive with a healthy amnount of neg camber and they handle great...

but 3 degrees is for FWD too much,get it checked again ,maybe they didnt do it properly.

0 dgrees and 0 mins suck ,thez make the car handle too neutral,and turn in is to slow..
 
:barf: thanks for answering the question.....

Anyways i was checked 3 times and it had the same reading. I'm not car stupid i know enough aboput camber and what is acceptable and what is not. I'm not saying i want 0.0 degress or - 3 degrees. I want what is in spec which is about -.8 degrees. Anyone else???
