2279, got some new shoes! Posted by soulcontroller, Apr-21-05 04:13 AM
well, i spent the better part of the last couple days replacing my rear wheel bearings and struts/shocks with AGX's and HnR sports.
the ride is 100 percent better, and all of the wobbly noises i used to get from the wheel bearings are gone. hehe it feels like such an accomplishment, i love it. doing those wheelbearings was a bitch and a half, but now knowing how to do it, i guess it really isnt that bad...
anyway, suspension replaced, new wheels on, purchased a while back from a member on the forum.
now i need an alignment. before i do that though, my rear camber is a little off ( an understatement). i think stock our camber is bad, and these springs really dont help that fact.
so im wondering what type of camber adjustment or kit have you guys used on the rear of your car? has anyone used this?

Beautiful car :thumbsup
I love it.
As you can see from my sig, I never bothered to "fix" the camber. Come on man, it's a DSM!

lol yea i guess. i just dont feel right with such off camber. granted i can rotate tires to an extent, i just want to do it up right.
im going to order that camber kit from xtremepsi.
ill let you guys know how it is and the installation. i think its going to involve some bearing presses :\ weeeee.
thanks.

Your car looks good! I wouldn't get that cheesey kit.. I have the control arm camber kit and it works great...It replaces the wholes arm/linkage instead of putting an insert in it..My friend has a prelude and he keeps breaking the cheap camber kits.

heh ah well.
its a pita to do the awd rears. you cant just replace a hub assembly, you have to have the bearing pressed off and on :\
