#1908, "Is the $15 camber mod enough for.....?"


          

Is the $15 camber mod enough for ~2" drop on coilovers? I mean with the number of washers and stuff that are listed.

It worked out well for me. The rear camber was just slightly negative but within specs. I used the # of washers listed also. One thing you want to remember, some places have thicker washers than others. It might not be enough to matter but if you stack 4 or 5 together than it could be a little different.

Did you need a front camber kit?

No front camber kit here. I have never had any problems with the front camber, even before the CO's. My car is alot lower now than it was before but still the front is fine.

Hey Joe, how much drop do you have now? What are your camber specs in front? Is it perfectly 0 degrees or? My car is set at the highest the front coilover will go (almost stock height) and its still -1.1 degrees camber in the front.

I really don't know exactly what the drop is on my car. I have it setting where on the back I can barely get two fingers between the top of the tires & the lip. On the front I have it setting with one finger between the tire & lip. This is with 18's and 45 series tires. I don't remember if the front was exactly 0 or not, but I've never had any prob with the tech having enough adjustment to get the camber set.
