hey dude I forgot which but the ingalls make two kinds of kit the one you can adjust and the one you acn't just order the one that you can adjust.....make sure you jet a proper alingementfor your tires......becareful after you install the kit because the steering wheel will pull ........you must get your car alingement asap after you install the kit......hope this will help you

i think all camber kits are the same i used to have the camber bolts then i went to the camber adjustable A arms " JUST MAKE SURE YOU GET AT LEAST 3 DEGREES ADJUSTABILITY" with a drop like that you will have to shave the inside lip of your fender and posibly cut a hole at the very top of the fender to keep the ball joint from hitting when you hit a hard bump

I'm happy with my ingalls kit. Try to get around 3.25 degrees of adjustment or more your going to need it. By the way all camber kits are not the same. I had a progressive on my front before the ingalls and even though it claimed 3.25 degrees of adjustment it was not able to correct for my 2.5 inch drop. Spend the extra bucks and get a good kit. Alignment is a must after install. If you are able to find somewhere cheap to do your alignment in Miami let me know. The only place I found that would do it was Miami Chasis and it was like $120 for an alignment and camber adjustment.

Just install everything and right after you do go get an alignment. Try to find out ahead of time what shop is willing to do a dropped car alignment because most places won't do it (kmart, pepboys, sears, etc...) Good luck
