unfortunately there isn't your gonna have to but a static kit from progress or and adjusatble ball joint kit from companies such as: eibach, ingalls, specialty products company, and sprint. i personally have a specialty products company kit on min that i got from nopi locally for 130$ my front camber is perfect now.

yea me too. i bought a ingalls control arm bolt kit off of ebay, for $120. it looks pretty simple to install yourself, then just have a shop realign it.

I've got a little negative chamber on my back and was wondering if the washer thing would work on my 99 accord? I just got new tires and noticed that the inside is wearing a little, and the tires were $$$ so i dont wanna be buying some more in like a few months

don't you have clearance probelms with specialty products ?
I ask someone who sells them on groupbuycenter and he said I have to cut my inner fender......
I need one so let me know.
And I though Progress uses ball joint system ?

well my front right control arm rubs on the little platic liner thing about once in a blue moon, cause i'll look under there and see it out of place and torn up, but you can't even tell its rubbing. im dropped 2.5 inches in the front with the kit all the way out and it seems to be doing ok. my front camber is -.01 and 0.0. oh yeah, progress uses a ball joint kit but its non adjustable, hence the name static.

this place called butler tire. they are a local performance wheel shop. they specialize in sports cars and lowered cars.

strodda · #15 03-31-2002, 01:59 AM

ok, hopefully a simple question. 1.8" rear drop. how many washers would i need to "mostly" correct the camber. im not looking for perfect, but i dont wanna have to buy new tires every year either.
