It really does not matter where you tighten everything down. It is all out of whack without an alignment. Put the kit on and get an alignment within a week is my advise. I do no scrutenize the settings when I install these. It really is pretty pointless.
Also, the SPC is a good kit also, depending on your needs. If you are running a low offset or a wide wheel and tire package the SPC can help create more clearance at the fender.

would it be bad to pair the SPC kit with the ingalls kit to run wide wheels.

Thread back from the dead, but I saw no reason to start a new thread when this one has lots of great information. Thanks to all who contributed.
That said, I will hopefully be installing my Ingalls this weekend. I did my own CAI, RSB, A-spec suspension, etc, so I have a certain degree of comfort about these things. I'm not sweating it much. The car being an 04 which has spent its entire life in CT worries me from a rust standpoint, but thankfully I have a can of PB blaster and I lift weights.
My question: if the locking nuts on the Ingalls arms have torque specs, how do you tighten them to spec? You can't get a torque wrench (at least, not a socket like I have) over them since they are on the arms themselves. I don't want to hand-torque it and then die on the highway. By the way, my plan is to get alignment first thing Monday morning after a Sunday install.

I also put on anti-cease on all the threads. As you'll notice, there is a lot of surface rust from the Ohio salt.
One bolt required some serious muscle to get off.

When you install your camber kit did you put on bushing or it came with it ?

yeah..pics are gone...I installed new winter tires/rims last week and since the inside of the old rear tires were all chewed, I had the car aligned too. At the shop they were telling me that there isn't much to do to realign the rear and a camber kit is needed....$600 if i am right! I'll have to read a bit and see if i can do it myself!..so far no idea if it is that necessary!
