wdup guys. i got a big *** camber problem. i was looking for a camber kit on ebay and came across this -> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...33581

is that a legit kit ? or would you guys recommend something else.

 

I've never heard of it. It looks kind of weird but who knows. Ingalls are the tried and true standard of camber kits.

 

what is your big *** camber problem?

are the numbers equal on both sides?

 

Are you positive you are having a camber issue? Toe issues are often misinterpreted for camber issues... Is the abnormal wear on the outer or inner edge; or does the tire have swipes in a diagonal pattern across the entire face?

 

Have you had an alignment recently? Is your car lowered? Because as stated above, it's the toe that is usually the culprit to uneven tire wear. I am currently dropped 1.8 inches around, have - 1.5 - 2.0 degrees of camber, had only an alignment, and all of my tires are wearing evenly.

 

the wear is in the inside edge

 

yeah im also dropped about 1.8. i took my car to the alignment shop bout a month ago and they said camber seems to be the worse. my toe was off by a lil. they said fix my camber wit a kit jus enough so they can align it.

 

Save up and get the Skunk2, or Omni power A arms. If you dont have the money for thoses save up and get the ingales kit at least.

bah. they will tell you that, but it's crap. do you have the sheet with the #s on it? toe eats up tires WAAY faster than camber unless you are really slammed. just get the toe set right and rotate often. my camber is -2.something degrees. front tires got all worn out cuz the toe was way off from dropping it.

 

my alignment is -1.9 both sides, dropped on neuspeed race.

i got excellant life out of my tires.

over 30,000 miles and they still had plenty of tread, however, i replaced them anyway.

 

I had that camber kit on my last gsr and it fixed my problem. The only thing is, is that you are going to have to get your wheels realigned. When I put them on my car it pushed those wheels so far outa alignment. But yeah they do work and are easy to install.

well, the whole point of a camber kit is so that you can make adjustments so unless you have the equipment at home, you have to get an alignment. and you should also get an alignment each time you adjust the height [toe and camber are affected by this].

do any kits out there also allow you to adjust caster? I have heard there are, but haven't seen any.

 

Don't go with generic kits. You will kick yourself in the a** later. Cambers are an integral part of your suspension, if they fail, it will get ugly. You can't go wrong with Ingalls or SPC. The skunk2 and Omni kits are good quality as well. Check us out at: http://www.camberkit.com Contact me if you have any questions.

 

those Ingalls kits....where do they mount? I don't see any complete adjustable upper control arms for the DA. it says they replace the factory "uprights" but I'm not sure what that means.

great prices, though! lowest price I've seen on a DC header so far [new].

::edit:: oh, ok...I saw the FAQs on the site and it showed pics. neat! does anyone prefer one type over the other? meaning, adjustable balljoing vs. the ones that replace the control arm mounting points. thanks.

The only complete replacement I know of for the DA are the Vision upper A-arms. They're kind of hard to find and you will still have negative camber with them, they're not really meant for the street.

The ingalls front kit goes between the upper A-arm and the mount points allowing the arm to slide in and out. I have heard that the ball joint kits are known to slip sometimes but I don't know if this is due to design flaw, installation problem, or if it's been corrected.

The rear kit replaces the upper arm with an adjustable threaded piece.
