Default problems with front cambers........

I recently upgraded my front spindle to an integra spindle in order to get bigger brakes on my 92 EG. But it totaly threw off my cambers even with my skunk 2 upper camber kit which are maxed out. In order to correct the camber i had to buy the the top bolt camber kit. So now i have 2 sets of cambers in front. Did this happen to anybody before and if so how did you correct it because now the tip of the skunk 2 are hitting that metal tip in side the wheel well.

i haven't had an alignment yet but soon. i just visually aligned the cambers as straight as possible. Im acaully waiting to get a pair of Tunabe pros-oc coilovers and a sway bar system before i get it aligned.

You really should have the alignment done to see what you're running at before deciding there's a problem. Your car is designed to have negative camber from the factory, it should not be 0. Even if you had 0 camber and your toe settings are off, you will get uneven tire wear.

I'm running with nearly 2* of camber all around (you can see it in the rear) and never had a problem in 2 years. This is with super soft tires and track days as well.

I'm not sure if you need all that hardware, so if you have your specs checked, you may find out you could get rid of that stuff and solve your problem. Also, you don't need an alignment after a swaybar install.
