camber kit options
okay, so i went to get my car aligned since i was unable before i moved. my inner front tires have some wear. my camber for my left tire is -3.0 and right is -3.8
toe was -0.2 for the left i think and the -0.3 for the right. the tech said he would not adjust my car until i got a camber kit. he showed me the kind for replacing the balljoint for an adjustable one. i looked at most of the 73 posts for previous camber kit questions. so my question is, who offers the adjustable UCA for ED9s? i checked skunk 2 and omnipower and didnt see them listed. it appears that i will be going with the spc camber kit since it there are mulitple complaints about the ingalls kit and just buy 90-91 uca's so i can just press the ball joint out. i will need the extreme kit. i will check ebay after this post but dont know if i will find anything. i really would rather not go with some unknown brand. unfortunately, money is an issue, i moved to southern california for schooling (nursing) and my bank account is slowly going down. i hopefully will be getting a job soon with one of the hospitals here, but dont know how long they may take since i am pretty much guaranteed the job. oh yeah, what are the prices for the adjustable UCAs if there are any availible. i will have toe adjusted to zero also. the wear came on quick since i had to drive to make 3 trips for 600 miles, driving straight thru in a month.
one of the posts i read said that midnight performance had an upper control arm camber kit for 250-275. does anyone know more about them.

i have decided to go with the spc adjustable balljoint and just new UCAs from a 90-91 civic since it looks like its my best bet. thanks for the offer though. im gonna see if ebay has them for cheap, if not, its prosuspension.com for me
the SPC balljoints have a bad problem about punching holes in your strut towers, because of the stud on top, i would stay away from them if i were you
the Ingalls style sliding arm mounts are horrible too, they slip often and can ruin a set of tires in a couple mins if you dont catch it
the spc spinning arm mounts are impossible to adjust and are just as retarded as the Ingalls
the only kit that is worth getting is $500 and nobody has copys of it yet, so get a alighment camber wont wear your tires very bad at all if you have your toe set right, and wait and hope somebody makes the rip off of the whole arm with the sliding flat balljoint

yeah, i have seen the options. i have decided to go with the spc balljoints due to the cost and seem to have the least amount of issues. i know it still has its drawbacks but i have the money but choose not to fork out 500.00 for the vision arms. maybe when im done with school and have lots of extra money to work on my car. but since its a daily driver and i go to mexico often (my dad lives there, hondas are hot there), i'd rather not at this time. thanks for your advice. i have already ordered the balljoints. now i just have to go to the junkyards in mexico and pick up some 90-91 UCAs.
y do you have to buy new uca's? what other camber kits are out there because i have 88 crx on tokico shocks and springs and my 2 front wheels camber is way off.
