Camber A Arms, Initial setup???
I am going to be installing my Omni a-arms next weekend and I was kinda hopeing to get an idea of where to initally set them up at.
If you have installed (or adjusted) yours please let me know where the ball joint lines up, Do you have them pushed all the way out? all the way in? Right smack in the middle? I know each car is different. So I am just asking for a general idea. Of course the car will be going to get aligned as soon as I am done ith everything, but the closer the better.

I am dropped 1.25"F, 1.0"R and I have them about 1/4" from being all the way out. It all really depends on how much camber you are looking for and how low you are.

Ya i am going to cut 4-5 coils out, I hope it does not rub too much......LOL
anyways I will be a bit lower then you. Looking for about 1.5F 1.75R. Might go a bit higher or lower just depends on my coilovers (and my mood).
You would think that most of these companys would design the arms to take a lot of caber out. If it was slamed all the way back it would be stock camber at stock height. That way no matter how low you go you can pull the camber back to stock.

LOL. If you cut more coils out, it will be extra JDM.
Yeah, the fact that the adjustability is very limited sucks. If you want to go any lower than 1.5", you will have negative camber in front no matter what.

Is you car really only 1.25 and 1"?? I looks a lot like mine, but I though I was closer to 2 and 1.5"
