Alignment....

Anyone know an Front Alignment Kit that can handle 3 degrees plus of camber? Progress' is just not cutting it.

I dont think you would want to adjust your alignment to POSITIVE camber, unless you have a habit of driving on rails (think about it for a bit). You would want to run NEGATIVE camber, that will place the top of the wheels closer together than the bottom of the wheels. Three degree's is still alot to run on the street. About - 1.5* to -2* of camber is about the limit, without sacrificing your tires all too soon. Unless you are trailering your car to solo2 or track day events, I would advise against it. Besides, if you are running a fairly light car, and you are rolling the tires over on turns, you can correct this with a positive air pressure adjustment. I have run as much as 55lbs in front tires without incident on the track, and have found that I do not benefit from running more than two degree's of neg. camber. Now let me get down from my stump and give another a chance.

Re: Alignment....

it your lowered real low you get negative camber, with the kits i posted you can correct it up to 3 degrees from where it is. not 3 degrees positive, i meant it as 3 degrees towards positive camber...

I've got the SPC balljoint kit and it is very nice. Fixed my camber problem once I got a full alignment with the kit on. I had -2.8 and -2.9 degrees of camber and the kit fixed that to the point where I am not burning up my tires anymore.
