#7222, "How many degrees of camber correction needed?????"


          

Current set up Eibach pro kit springs and 18 inch wheels. How many degrees of correction do I need to get back to factory specs?? Any input would be appreciated!

how thick are all the washers when put together? So I can get the right thickness.

There were four washers on each bolt so that made it about an half to three-fourths of an inch thick I guess.
Hope this helps.

Thanks thats what I needed to know, did you get alignment after you done the camber adjustments, if so do you remember what your readings were?

Glad I could help. Yeah you need to have it aligned when you put on the springs and the camber kit. I dont remember what my camber reading was after aligned but it is not bad. The guy said that the factory specs for the rear is around -1 degree(mine might have been like -1.2 degrees)
TIA

I'm about to order my springs, so do we need any kind of kit for the front with the Eibachs or will the factory hardware allow for the proper adjustments??? TIA!!!
