I'll post pics of mine when I get back from LA. I don't think it would be that easy. The camber kit I bought replaced two of the rear arms to adjust camber and toe. I'll post the pics on Sunday night.

Is he talking specifically about the CL? That may work on another car but I'm almost 100% positive it won't work on the CL. I don't know how you could fine tune (+-1 degree) by changes bolts anyway.

That technique would work on an older (pre 98) Accord, civics, eclipses, etc. However, since we have a multilink rear suspension it will not work on our car.

Use washers. Lets FAQ this...that the rear camber can be adjusted with washers.

please elaborate. I don't think that will work on the latest gen CL. The first gen CL's you can shim out with washers and longer bolts. They have an upper control arm, but we don't.

If anyone here knows about suspensions, I believe it would be 4pumped.

This guy knows his shit. He has completely dismantled and reassembled his suspension.
