What camber kit would you get?

[elementalwindx]

I need a full camber kit bad, all 4 of my tires are worn out exactly the same on the exact same sides w/ perfect tred on 90% of the rest of the tires. My car is lowered 1-2inches at the most. I bought the car like this.

I am in the market for buying a full kit, if its less than 500$ that is. I've heard the ingalls adjustable is the best. If you guys would give me some links to distributers who sell them cheap that would be great. Sugguestions for other kinds and opinions are welcomed in this thread. thanks!

I bought the last two kits on this page from specialty products and have no complaints. Diamond star motor sport suspension page They are a direct replacement and if you follow the directions the install is pretty easy. For the front I bought the 1.75* to 3* because my car is pretty low. I don't know exactly which one you would want but they are high quality and have kept true for almost 1.5 years now.

Also does anyone think this lil mod for the rear is safe? http://home.bellsouth.net/p/s/community.dll?ep=16&groupid=94647&ck=

and if it is, does anyone know how many washers would be right for a 1-2 inch drop (most people say my car is dropped 1 inch, i say almost 2 at the most), and know what the torque specs would be for the rear?

I know alot of people here have done the free mod.

I did it myself, but have been hearing some noises coming from back there that make me worry about it. I've checked the bolts, they all seem tight, but it's still worrisome. I plan to go to a "real" camber kit.

I wouldn't doubt that the mod is safe as long as you use grade 8 bolts and all. But, I asked my friend, who used to do alignments all day every day, If i should have went with that setup rather then buying the kit and he said no. The reason he said that is because he didn't want to have to sit there and unbolt my upper arm each time to make an adjustment 2 cams per side as opposed to 4 bolts per side. All you have to do with the kit is simply loosen the cam up and adjust it and then tighten it back down, no fumbling around with washers or anything.
