ITR springs/stock shocks.... got a few questions
I just put that setup onto my 00 civic ex last week, and i like the subtle drop and slightly stiffer ride...
with this setup, I am able to fit 2-3 fingers in wheel well gap... i think it was a little more than 3 with the stock setup.. anyway
I'm wondering if i should git an alignment right now, or if i can get away without getting one anytime soon, perhaps after new shocks (which im in no rush to get, btw)? is there a way to tell if i need an alignment at all?
secondly, I know there is that rear camber correction mod, the one thats simple and involves putting washers between the UCA's and the chasis... I'm wondering that with my subtle drop if i should look into doing this mod? I dont really think i need it, but then i want to know if it really is worth the time to do it anyway, just so i can correct the camber a little bit?
and third, i also put on my ST sway bars set.. and the front was lubed well with that grease, but i think the rear isnt... the rear had the bushings on and bar greased when i bought it... it was prepped for install by a shop i guess, then they didnt put it on... so my question is how to grease the thing up? it's kind of making noises back there already, and i know it's easy to fix, but how would i grease the bushing? is it required that i remove the sway bar first?
any help would be cool, thanks in advance!
