Hi, can ayone tell me which of these OBX camber adjusters are supposed to fit a 1989 CRX ? it looks to me like the black coloured set are the right ones as the gold finish ones don't even allow you to have it set at the stock setting! The stock mounts have the pivot hole underneath the mounting stud and you can see the black ones will allow this but the gold ones won't. I think the gold ones are going to get thrown back

Also, when you fit these they move the pivot point for the top arm downwards compared to the standard mounts - is that supposed to happen or are both of these wrong and not for the CRX/EF. Are you supposed to remove the ring round the mounting stud at the top also, i can't see how the heck it will mount to the bodywork othewise?

Is it just me or do you reckon these mounts/bushings will last 10 miniutes of winter salt and grime on the roads before falling apart?

Has anyone got any hints/tips on fitting these, they book to be a bit rough and ready in the quality department.

Cheers folks!

Judging by that picture, it looks like both of those will fit your EF. The only difference between those two is the AMOUNT of adjustability.

The gold ones on the right at its most MINIUM setting, is already set for some pos. camber. Whereas, the ones on the left, can be set at stock if you decide to raise the car back to stock ride height.

They look like the same as the INGALLS part #'s 3570 and 3572.

Ive seen some like this develop some wear and SLOP after a few years of winter driving and occasional autocross/ road racing. The nylon inserts tend to wear out.

There are a couple of different designs offered out there. SPRINT SUSPENSION offers one that uses a offset CAM instead of a SLIDING bolt and nut design that seems more resistant to wear.

 

I think they're all gay. Why can't somebody come up with a nice design that is durable.

it sucks that such a small part like this matters so much and costs so much. i agree that they should make a durable camber kit

 

Thanks for the info guys, i will have a go at fitting the black coloured ones, see how it goes and let you know.

How long they will last with a Scottish Winter i don't know

Cheers,
