Camber kit

If I recall...I've seen a rear camber kit, but does anyone make a front camber kit for the 2001 CL? Thanks

Camber is one of the angles referred to in suspension systems.The most commonly referred to angles are camber caster and toe.When a vehicle is lowered such as ours these angles are changed due to the lowered ride height and adjustments must be made to compensate for this.Acuras typically do not feature an adjustable camber on either the front or rear suspension so the aftermarket has come into play and produces various replacement suspension parts that have adjustable components that allow the geometry of the supension to be setup properly.Comptech is testing an adjustable front upper control arm at this time but as of yet has not released it.I believe Eibach like most other suspension companies actually buy their camber arms from Ingalls.Jens

Jens,
Does the 2001 CLS need a camber kit when springs only are installed?
