camber correction

i just got finished with the next couple of steps on my 92 240(suspension,body kit,rims,awaiting sr) so i desided to to her out for a couple of test drives before she goes back to the garage for the winter for the motor swap. i only took a couple of laps on the local track (10 or so in 1 week) and when i put her back up on jacks i noticed that the rear tires where almost bald on the inside. i knew that the camber would be messed up but i didnt think it would be this bad/ expensive(new falkens arent cheap) does any one know a cheap way to fix this or do i have to break down and buy the kit??? or does anyone have the kit the would sell me???

your best bet would be an adjustable upper a arm...

check out
www.splparts.com

they sell some cool suspension pieces. The one your looking for goes on the top of the suspension, from the rear subframe to the knuckle, and has a hole cut out in the middle for the strut to pass through.

You can also get some camber plates up front too, those will help out a lot.

no some jackass dropped a Acme anvil on it from 25 stories and when it hit the car, it squashed the suspension, now that his car sits lower he needs to adjust the camber

Re: camber correction

well did you ever go get an alignment after you did it all????? that usually does the trick..... alignment is recommended after any suspension work.
