Default Camber adjustment - Control arm hitting wheel well - I WANT LOWER!!!

Hey...

I drive a 93 Accord Exr.. suspension: KYB-GR2 gas shocks, generic coilover springs, stock upper control arm on generic camber kit.

I had her on the floor last summer, dropped about 5 inches but this was without the camber kit.. this summer I put in a camber kit in and I'm having trouble getting it as low as I would like... it seems the camber kit brought the upper control arm out about an inch and now the control arm hits the wheel well.

Is there anything I can do to get her nice and low but keeping the appropreite camber ... not in the mood to kill anymore barrings

you need a new way to adjust camber. one that doesn't lengthen the control arm, but moves the ball jt. something like the skank2 kit for dc2's and civics.

i don't know if one is made for CB's.

i had the same problem on my eg. i took a grinder and grinded the wheel well down little by little until the control arm cleared.
