Default Camber kit woes..

So I picked up this camber kit

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors....m245


And I'm thinking this was a mistake.

I got Skunk2 Sport shocks and Skunk2 Coilovers.

Had the camber kit installed on the front, and it doesn't make any noises, but I have major steering issues, when I turn my wheel a little bit (more than you would just for a correction, while going 30+ mph it seems to like fall that direction, and the tire on that side slides a little. So for instance, I'll be going 45Mph, turn my wheel quickly to the right just a little bit (enough to change lanes) And the right front tire slides, (you can hear it). and the wheel falls to the right more or less, feels like it WANTS to turn that way...

Any clues on this?

Did you have the car aligned immediately after installation?

x2 sounds like you have some major alignment issues with toe and not camber

Would that cause this problem? Also - it feels like there is Slack in the wheel ... I wasn't aware allignment could cause this.

Toe misalignment can cause all sorts of nasty, unpredictable things to happen. Get it aligned NOW, lest you crash into someone and kill them.
