ingalls rear kit is just washers anyways I believe. It's a waste of money to buy a "rear" camber kit, when you can use washers.

Re: requesting pictures of Ingalls rear camber kit (MJ23FE)
That looks exaclty like the Specialty Products rear camber kit I have on my hatch. The ingalls is a smaller diameter and the adjustment points/nuts are toward the center of the unit- making it very hard to adjust when on the alignment rack from under the car.

Forget the 'washer trick' and get a rear camber kit. They don't cost that much.
1) You are NEVER going to get exactly the right adjustment using combinations of different size/thickness washers. You will get in the ballpark, but that's it. Increased tire replacement costs will eat you alive.
2) Unless you do the alignment yourself, 'they' are probably going to charge you $60/hr to fiddle around adding and removing washers. Plus, 'they' will need to add/remove washers - check the alignment - then, take it all apart again, add/remove washers, check alignment again, et cetera. This will be costing you a dollar a minute every time they do it.
If the INITIAL cost is a problem (forgetting about the subsequent alignment/tire replacement costs) go to JC Whitney and get a Sprint Extreme rear camber kit. I don't know what model/year your car is, but they usually run about 70 bones each (you will need 2 kits per axle)...
Example for my 2000 CiViC:

It's like the old Mr. Goodwrench commerical; "You can pay me now, or you can pay me later," you know?

Wrong! I just looked at both side by side at Payn Tech. The Ingalls part looks more like this RSX peice...It's much less beefy...

Yep that's the one. Looks quite a bit different in design than the SPC piece.

Poly...
Yep, that's what the Ingalls kit looks like. Just thought I would mention, if he decides to go the Ingalls route, he only needs 1-kit per axle. So, that would be 160 bones for the Ingalls compared to 140 for the Sprint Extreme.
INGALLS REAR CAMBER KIT
Polyurethane bushings are designed for a performance like ride. Polyurethane may squeak if not properly lubricated. You should use a lubricate will not wash away. Once the lubricate is washed out or contaminated from road grime the lubricate will no longer be effective. You will need to re-lubricate. Rubber bushings are designed for the "street" use only vehicle. They provide a more factory like ride. These bushings do not need to be lubricated, but will not provide you with that "tight" suspension feel.

...If you have a mild drop (~1 inch) washers will be fine though...
The kits mentioned here are for extreme corrections. However, these ssupension companies also make 'normal' kits that provide smaller amounts of correction for even less money.
Just thought I'd throw that in the mix...

Re: requesting pictures of Ingalls rear camber kit (BlackDeuceCoupe)
I recommend the Specialty Products rear camber kit. Not as susceptible to rust or frozen (as in immovable, not cold) threads and nuts as the Ingalls. My Ingalls rear did that, and the alignment shop guy said it's kinda common on Ingalls.

Re: requesting pictures of Ingalls rear camber kit (VTEC)
I paid $90 for the SPC kit here locally. Yes, that's for the pair.

i would like to add to this very old thread.
I just installed my rear skunk2 camber kit today on my 2000 integra gsr.
i forgot to lube the bushings and sleeve and is squeaking like crazy, make sure everyone lubes there bushings up before installing them to avoid this problem.
im going to lube them up tomorrow and get it re aligned again.Hope fully this cures the problem.
