Camber kit 2g questions

Anyone have this camber kit? Any opinions?
I want it, but to me it just seems as if all that weight is resting on that 1 little bolt that it could snap. My car is not stock either and these will go through some abuse.
Thanks for the help.

What do you think your car is sitting on right now?

I have done this before and it worked great. Just make sure to use loc-tite when you get it where you want it and I recommend having it taken to an alignment shop to make sure it's set right. Also make sure to use grade 12 bolts if you can.

Actually, this I have been doing. I have 2 washers on each point and the washers are just less than 1/4" thick and my camber is still off. I didn't know what was the best route to go. I do have my own camber/caster tool so I don't need to take it to a shop.

My biggest concern is becuase if you hold a weight close to your chest it's easy, but if you extend your arm with the weight it tires out faster. I didn't know if this concept is similar to having all that weight on a grade 10 bolt.

Kinda but not really. Unless you put like 15 washers on each side, it isn't going to be enough to cause any stress problems. Just make sure you use long enough bolts to get lots of threads in the hole and use loc-tite when you are done and you will be ok.

I have used road race engineering on booth of my DSM 2g with no issues

A grade 10 bolt is of infinite strength as far as DSM'ers are concerned. That bolt will not shear under any natural circumstances.
