camber kit not needed

[whiteice2x]

hey, when you lowere your car 2" or lower your camber becomes pretty bad. It is true you dont have to get a camber kit to fix the allignment, yu could use nuts, bolts, and washers in some way?

For the front you need either an offset bushing for the upper control arm, or an adjustable ball joint.

DIY rear camber kit

Just remember that while you may physically be able to change your camber settings by doing this mod, you still don't know what the camber is before or after. Most importantly, the camber still will not be set properly after lowering it. You will still need to set the toe and have the camber checked to make sure you put in the correct number of shims.

I only half agree with the above.

If you have a set of suspension maps for your car and can do simple trig, then you will know your camber before and after.

I agree, however, that you must reset the toe and, so, if you don't have a good string setup, you should drive straight to the alignment shop after doing the work.

Does that work for the front too? Or just the backs?
