Also try the search function.

PS<>It's been a while since I updated / viewed my web site. The Pep Boys here DOES have the 40mm bolts now. The computer was showing 40 or so, they really didn't have any so they zeroed it out and got a shipment in If you can't find them, I'll pick some up for you which will be less than $5 shipped.

It's necessary if you are dropped 1.5" or more....

I have a 2 1/2 " drop I took mine in to be checked they said the back was still with in specs.

With nothing done to shim the rear out I doubt it! What was "with in specs" to them?

My drop is with H&R Sports. I shimmed the stock bolts with 2 washers on each and that brought me back within spec.

i have a question about that, the stock camber arm(uca) is not adjustable and when you change how far it sicks out from the car are you also changing the angle at which the bushing sits? the way to tell would be to check the car while the suspension is under load and see if the bushing is still lined up w/ the trailing arm slot for it, or does it look twisted(like it would be putting alot of pressure on the bolt). i have the ingals but i think im gonna put my stock ones back on and use the washers b/c its really loud, but i need to be sure it wont seize the bolt. thanks

I have NO idea what you are trying to say, sorry!

Smart move, Ingalls suck!! Get some anti-seize stuff for the bolts and you're set

lol, nevermind. the thing abou the ingals is that although they are loud the bushings are uerethane so i'd think they would hold the camber better around high speed corners.... am i wrong? do you just say they suck b/c they are loud or do you have other reasons?

those ******* bother me though, i have full e.s bushing set that are dead silent and my rear camber kit is loud as hell, sounds like my car is gonna snap in half.

Well, I don't really have any idea how the Ingalls looks or how IT performs / is adjusted. I just KNOW that it's an over price POS!
With the bolts and washers the camber is NOT going ANYWHERE!!!!!! Just don't get the cheap Home Depot bolts because maybe they can snap since they're not automotive grade like the Pep Boys one. The rear camber is soooooo damn simple to adjust that it's stupid to do it any other way. Not saying you are stupid, but the bolt / washer trick is one of the best ghetto mods there is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Check out my web site up top and you'll see why it's the best way. F**K Ingalls! Ebay that $hit and buy something useful for your car. Plenty of ricers on Ebay will pay top notch dollar for that POS thing you have on their now.

Let me know if you have anymore Q's!

euclid

it funny b/c i would have never put it on my car after seeing the washer trick b/c i always heard they were really loud, but i did the mod long before i found out about honda-tech and there arnt alot of options when it comes to the rear camber.. pep boys and advanced auto parts has gotten my *** out of a few suspension situations w/ their 10.8(?) grade metric selection too.
