RE: Install of camber kit on 4th Gen Prelude.... I have a Ingalls style camber kit, I installed them the other night just curious (since In am going to check everything over for loose bolts now since I have driven the car before it goes in for an alignment) with the kit should they be as tight as the factory camber kit was in the control arm? The stock ones didnt budge at all in the arm, more like they moved on the rubber bushing that the sleeve is in, the kits I have are rubber bushing style aswell so should these be in as tight as the stock ones were or should I leave some play in them so they will move with the suspension....? Another question I have is that I notice the new camber kit is narrower then the stock camber kit so as I was tightening the new kit the arms where the bolt goes in was bending, should I put a washer in on either side of the new kit to make up for the size difference or no? I have done this before on my integra but the integra arms are narrower and they fit snug in the opening.... Thanks for your advice....

 

i put a washer
i forget how many i put tho

 

ok one for np washer one for washer, now how tight should tehy be to the point that the dont really buge much or should they have a bit of movement to them? The stock kinda had very little movement and moved off of the rubber sleeves so it seemed....

 

Do you gus experience a clunking sound when the car goes over bumps or just gets the weight of the car onto the suspension after the camber kit install?

 

make sure the top bolts on the control arm are really tight, if they're not, they'll clunk.

 

Im not sure about the exact ft lbs of torque,but be carefull,if they are ebay ingal knockoffs they arent very strong,and overtightening will pull the stud right through the casting.Trust me I did it on my rears,it sucked,had to order another set to use only one.

 

Alrighty I'll check em with weight on the car, i think they are tight tho I know the bolts that fasten the kit to the arm are tight, havent checked the stud that holds the arm/kit to the car are, im sure they are casue i got them pretty tight the day i did them

 

just checked them, they are all tight.... see if anything changes.... it only makes real noise when I go over railroad tracks or anything in that matter, and thats slow too.... could just be the kit....
