a safe cheap way to adjust camber on accords

[knorsk]

I have a friend who knows a friend who said that his friend said that there was a cheap way to adjust camber with 5th gen honda accords. Actually they didn't say that, but I was wondering if using shims would be a safe way of adjusting camber on a 2.25 inch drop. And if so, would it be dangerous? Or should I just spend tons of money on a camber kit?

There are two bolts where the suspension bolts to the frame. two shims would work nice but I'd rather know the possible problems before I am wrapped around a tree saying " I knew I should have bought that camber kit."

anyone ever pulled it off safely?

Or should I put it like this...what good is a technical forum if nobody knows anything technical.

Oh yeah, don't bother flamming this post unless you know the answer to the question. Then you can flame all you want and even fuck my sister!

if you're talking about using shims/washers to fix the rear camber on the accord, then that's perfectly fine. that's how most alignment shops fix the rear camber. they add washers and use two longer bolts (two each side) in the rear. the front is what you have to worry about. alignment shops will bend the spindles, but if they don't set your toe correctly, the car will feel like it has back-steer when you turn.
