Re: washer trick (sshaikh01)
for front, do you guys like skunk2 style(changing whole LCA) or SPC style? Which one will work better?
A guy from local tire shop said that welding is involved to install SPC camber kit therefore i can't install it myself(He wanted $140 for installation). Is it true? cuz i read everyone in this board installing their camber kit by themselves. BTW it's for 95 del sol.

Re: washer trick (SkyeC)

Thats not true about the SPC ones because I just did mine myself this weekend and I didnt do any welding. It was a bitch getting the stock one out tho since i didnt have a ball joint compressor or whatever tool you need to take it off. I just hammered it until it came out...LOL...

All you need is a couple of hand-wrenches. No biggie. Like 15 min install.

Re: washer trick (DxHatchback)
I have the stock bolts with 3 washers. I hear the rule of thumb is 1 washer for every .5 degrees.... trial in error.. anything more than 3, it is strongly recomended to lengthen the bolt...
