Tomorrow i will be doing this mod and i need to know if its safe for our cars. I know alot of people have done it, but has anyone had any bad experiences? I'm lowered at about 1.7" right now and i know alot of people are at 2"+ with this mod and they say it worked.

After doing it, is the camber right on target or are we will still off a little bit? Is it noticeable?

Thanks

C'mon guys, someone has to be able to answer this.

it been pretty safe for me. ive had it since about dec or jan so thats about 8 months...some people have had it for years with no probs. i used 5 washers on a 1.5 inch drop. well, it claims to be 1.5 but i think its lower. when i got an alignment, the rear was in spec

Awesome

Thanks alot Phil!

yeah, i did mine about a month ago on goldline springs and it still looks like there is some negative camber but i'm within spec. I have had no problems with it at all.

winter project: custom t3/t4 turbo and some others

i've got 7 washers for over a year and still runs fine.

Where did all of you with the 15 dollar camber mod buy the specific bots and washers required? I know the bolts are a certain measurement, thread pattern, and grade.
- Eight (8) M10x40, 1.25 threaded bolts (Grade 10.9 preferred, Grade 8 acceptable)
- Thirty two (32) M10 flat washers, preferably hardened
- Eight (8) M10 split lock washers.

home depot and ace hardware

i think i have 5 in there now, but camber is wack, and i cant get on any body's alignment rack. i went to the home depot automotive wherehouse for my washers and shit.

I have the same setup w/ goldline springs.. i started with only four washers and it wasn't in spec.. just upped it to 6 washers today and I'm gonna get it aligned again. Just wonderin how many washers u used.

Anyone know anyone who can help me tune this in the Pittsburgh area (Greensburg)?

I'm gonna start off with 5 today and see how it looks. I was suppose to do this yesterday but Home Depot didnt have shit for hardware. So i had to wait until i got to work, my job is filled with metric hardware. I dont understand why i was gonna buy it anyways when i couldve got the parts for free.

Ok, we ended up doing 4 instead of 5 just to see the outcome. It's off a little still but 10x's better than before. Do you think i should get it aligned then see the outcome, or just say fuck it and add the 5th washer?

4 definitely wasn't enough for me... 5 may work, but i really think 6 should be about right. we'll see.. i'll have it aligned this week sometime.

yup i'm with you "sorry i win". goldline springs, 2" drop, 6 washers(actually, 5 washers and 1 locking washer) and i'm in good shape, i had it aligned as soon as i was done with the whole lowering project and he said it was easy to get the rear tires into spec. i ended up using "fender washers" from sears hardware. in the couple of write ups that are around here about doing the "$15 camber kit", they say the bigger the washers the better and that's so that it spreads out the stress a little better. as i said, i ended up using "fender washers" and those bitches were freaking huge, they worked great. i used 10.9 hardness bolts and those big ass washers and that's all i needed. good luck with your project.

its safe
