I know that fastline makes endlinks for the swaybar. Ingalls makes the camber kit like you stated. Some other members here can chime in on it.

I had the Wicked kit but it didn't fit the tapered end and its the top not the bottom control arm.

I never did find out if it was just mis packaged or what but it did look like a good quality kit.

I now have the Ingals ... what "bad" experience did you have with them .. thats the first I have heard of a bad experience with Ingals.

Read closely .. I didn't say they were bad ... I said the set I got didn't fit .. it might have been due to mis packaging .. others run them.

My rear kit performs well, installed super easy. Ingalls has high regard around here. Most 3G TL's just do the rear only at that drop amount.

Did you grease the contact points, and raise the susp to normal ride height before tightening anything down?

Search around. This has been discussed a whole lot, tons of info here.

Ingalls makes the best option for the rear since it has 2 arms per side to adjust camber and toe.

However, if you don't want Ingalls, SPC makes camber kits too:

http://store.excelerateperformance.c...5/i-68797.aspx

You need two of each.

I installed the wicked kit on my car and it was no trouble at all

benen is no longer in the business of making lower tie bars... they only make tow hooks now

fyi. if you want lower tie bars... look for those made for the tsx they fit pm the above vendor he can source em for you
