hey i just ordered the rear camber kit from autocarparts which i think is the same as this site. anyways i wanna order the front pair also but they dont offer the same offset as i will drop the front and back of my car 3 inches.. heh. anyways any help here????


p.s. can i install myself or i need to install at a shop.. ay sugguestions where in central ny.

 

You can do it yourself...not that hurt. Jack up car, take off wheel, and remove old arm, measure new arm to be a bit longer than stock and install.

 

Just need a ball joint separator and some wrenches. Pretty straight forward.

 

how much would a ball joint seperator cost and can i get one in any store.. also is it safe to jack up with the jack that comes with the car.. thanks, will try and install this weekend, i hear we might reach 33 degrees Ferenheit.. YAHOO... lol

 

Separators are fairly inexpensive. You can also rent suspension tools at a lot of auto parts stores (sometimes free for a day with a deposit).

I don't advise doing work on your car without jackstands as a safety. You can use the jack that comes with the car to get it in the air but stick some jackstands under it before you pull the wheel and stick any part of your body under it. Always assume the worst and keep yourself safe. To break the bolts, you're going to be applying some pressure & you don't want to shake the car off of the jack.

 

i just got the camber in the mail.
i got aquestion, i hope u can answer or me.

first question, every time i drop or raise the car, i gotta adjust the camber??? and how can i adjust it.

 

Nick,

I just PM'ed you back.

I also had a thought. Once you have it aligned with the SPC kits in, mark both the placement of the SPC kit and your Tein's. If you ever lower or raise your car, count the number of turns that you're lowering or raising your perch on the Tein's. When you take back to the shop for alignment, you will be able to see the effect of your height adjustment & may have no affect ( or very little) on on camber. If the guy needs to adjust camber, ask him to tell you how many turns and which way on the SPC adjuster it took to get it on Spec. After a couple of times, you should have a pretty good idea how to adjust the SPC kit in relation to adjustments on the Tein's and save yourself alignment $$$. At least it will put you in the ball park to save your tires.
