Default Advice. Camber kit.

Could someone recommend a good camber kit for 93 Del Sol. I have ingalls from my DA but i hate it plus the rubber bushings are worn out inside.
Any advice would be apreciated.

try SPC or another brand that offers poly bushings. the omni is not bad, i recommend them, but they are also rubber bushing equipped. i would press those out and replace them with poly.

Do they sell them seperate, not in a coilover kit? I searched ebay and only kits came up. Another question, if that upper control arm bushing goes bad on OMNI UCA can you get a replacement for it? Or you have to buy another UCA?

i agree but, the spc are forged, not welded like the omni, which IMO is alittle better quality.

I grabbed omni, but there is a back order on them which sucks. Password has front and back kits for like $300.

So all you guys have omni, but when you move the bushing outwards, does it ever hit the tower? That's what i'm worrying about. My del sol is slammed and if the upper bushing is moved too far i'm concerned about it hitting the tower on bumps etc.

Does anyone ever had any issues with that?

When i had ingalls on my DA the UCA would hit the tower all the time. I have dents under the hood. This was my main concern. So no one had problems with it so far no matter how low the ride height was?

why are you people so low?? it hurts handling more than it helps, the suspension geometry is all off... the roll center is probabley so low that your car may handle slower than a stock one.

exactly, you can be low but if you are worrying about scrapping up **** on the road then raise that sh#t up to a reasonable height.
