Default Longer LCAs?

Ok, I have searched the forum, and I haven't found anyone talk much about longer LCAs. I just got my OMNI Power LCAs, and they are roughly 1 inch longer than my stock ones. I have not installed them yet in fear that I might have to take them back off. Besides it's raining outside, and I have a pool table in my garage. I have an ingall's camber kit (not the shim type). Does anyone know if I can offset the length of the arms with the camber kit? Omni Man? Also, I am hoping that my teggy sway bar holes match up to the Omni LCAs.

Sounds like you got the wrong ones. I know that EK LCAs are about an inch longer than EF/EG/DC LCAs. There is absoloutly no reason you would want to run LCAs that are a different length than OEM. Some companies advertise "camber correction". But with Honda's trailing link suspension design, changing LCA length will really **** up your dynamic suspension geometry...

Thanks, I figured you would be one to answer this post. I read some of your other posts and expect such an answer. I just needed someone to reinforce my guess.
