You should not need a camber kit for the prokit. Bend outward? Are you referring to negative camber? That is where your wheels look like this from the front / \

i wouldnt say you need shocks - but itll help your handling all the more. u dont need a camber kit and you dont need shocks - but both will help - i say shox a long way before camber

With the prokit lowering (1.3") I think you will still be in spec at about 1 degree of negative camber. I should probably get off my lazy *** and get a camber kit for my sportlines

1-2 degrees of camber helps handeling. Its actually good for the car.

Oh- I'm sorry. I'm sure that right when slipknot1 got banned another person with a slipknot screen name came in. My bad. We'll be able to tell for sure after a few more posts...

Eibach pro-kit = No camber kit required

I recommend doing the shocks while you're at it. It's well worth the wait.

Check this out all.

If this kind of FLAMING (no matter whom you presume is who) continues, I guarantee there will be more than 1 person to add to the ban list.

Please fellas, try to give people the benefit of the doubt.

Lets just move along and try yo answer the questions. If a person is a troll, then we will all be able to tell in time.... Lets not be in such a hurry to go off on people.

Thanks. -Chris
