picked this up for 369 at optauto.com. thanks to anthony (gorkoracing) for helping me put this kit on. its rated at 1.5" drop





ummmm long story dont even ask


right after the front was put on. (not settled)


2 fingers up front


about 2.5 in the rear


rear spring and strut assembly. u can see the bolts for the camber kit




rear camber is off a little (used 5 washers)

Did you just do the $15 camber mod? Is that why it is still a little off? I assume you didnt get your alignment yet right? did you use a camber kit in the front also?
Looks bad ass... and a good deal too. maybe in my future...

lol u pervs

i'll prolly get an alignment tues or wednesday. no front camber kit. dont think i'll need it. the rear is just barely off. i could probably put another washer on there and it would be better but im too sore right now. ive already driven over 120 miles on it and havent noticed any wear. although i did smell rubber burning when i pulled into my driveway.

Rear camber looks fine. I bet when you go get your alignment, you'll pleasantly find that it's within specs.
