i'm trying to look up directions on install camber kit. is this a D-Y-I job? or should i pay someone to do it? thanks.

 

its a joke....a definite do it yourself....took an hour..max.....put it up on jack stands...take the wheels off....youll see where the y arm looking thing is up top....its right at the top of everything....look inside the engine bay and find the corresponding nuts to the camber bolts that go right through. Then unbolt it from the suspension...pull the whole Y bar (for a lack of a better name) out and take the camber bolts off and put in the new one's then revers the whole process.....you'll have to eye how the kit goes in and then go get an alignment....use loc-tite when you put everything back together....you can find it at any autozone etc! goodluck! its easy...you can do it!

 

It depends on the camber kit. d5c5b is refering to offset pivot mounts, which are fairly common. You will need to have your camber measured so you know how far off you are. Then on the camber kit, assemble it according to the instructions for the amount of adjustment you need. For the pivot mount style, like d5c5b said, jack it up, pop off the wheel. You will see a pivot mount on each side of the upper A arm. Under the hood there are two nuts holding them to the strut tower. Remove the nuts. The upper A arm will drop down and you will be able to remove the nut/bolt holding them to the A arm. Repalce with the adjustable pivot mounts and reassemble.

Be sure you lube/grease the new mounts good. Especially the polyurethane ones, or they will squak like crazy.

On ther other hand, there are adjustable upper ball joints that can be used. From what I hear, these are better. You will find it at the outter point of the upper A arm, and is a little tricker to get off. I believe it's a nut secured in place by a cotter pin. You will ahve to remove the A arm like you were doing the pivot mounts, remove the nut on the ball joint, adn completely take the upper A arm out. Then I think you ahve to have the ball joint pressed out of the upper A arm, and the new adjustable one pressed in. You can possibly do this yourself, but it may require a special tool or something. I am specualting a little on the adjustable ball joint procedure, but that should be close.

Either one is easy, compared to other projects on a car.

There is a shim kit as well, but steer clear of those. I ahve neve heard anything good, and most people say it hits the top of the fender well.
