The camber kit you need depends on how far out it is. You need to have your camber measured first.

Lastly, get new adjustable ball joints, not the bushings one. THe one you are looking at has been known to hit the upper inner fender well causing noise and poor ride. You have to beat it or cut it out to make room. The ball joints are only about 50 bucks more.

I agree with chris...get ones with adj. ball joints. If you end up not, get ones with Urethane bushings. He's right, find out how far out your camber is before you buy the kit. From what I know, I'd recommend Specialty Products for a camber kit. Next week when I do my alignment I'll find out if I'll need anything...

These are the kind people have problems with (not necessarily Ingalls though):

http://www.ingallseng.com/parts/3570.html



These are the ball joints that allow for more correction, and are a better solution:



I believe only Progress Technology and Specialty Products make the ball joint type for our cars. The rest are the pivot style busings for the upper control arm.

Rear camber can be corrected with washers most of the time. Mine was only a 1.5" drop in the rear, so washers will get it back.
