Re: camber kit question
The first link shows adjustable pieces that attach to your stock upper control arms. They are used to extend the arm further away or closer to the car.
The second link is an adjustable upper control arm where you can move the balljoint to adjust the camber. These adjustable control arms are not good if you really want to slam your car to the ground. The control arm will hit the top of your fenderwell and have overall less clearance.
All the no-name ebay stuff is junk. Go with a reputable name if you get a camber kit. There is also a thread in the suspension forum discussing why camber kits are not needed.

Re: camber kit question
Id honestly stay away from both of them. The first pair with both kits look cheep as **** lol the bottom ones look ok but the bolts and ball joints look cheap imo

Re: camber kit question
ive used the one that utilize the stock uca with good results on 2 lowered cars now.
either type will work but i feel the Ingalls style is less likely to fail (two big bolts at a low stress point vs 4 weenie screws at the ball joint) and also allows a little more clearance from the top of the shock tower (usually)

Re: camber kit question
I had a camber kit like the one in the first link "Engalls" I believe mine was. From my installation experience and research I did after my installation. I could not get any negative camber out of it. Only positive...
I also have a camber kit like the one in the second link and mine is a skunk2. Works great but if your car is pretty low. It bangs against the inside of the wheel well..hope that helps
