They are pretty much the same thing. Camber kits are wastes of money. More people will be along to tell you.

OP is asking if Ingalls-type camber adjusters (replaces the bolts on the UCA's) can be used in conjunction with a complete upper A-arm replacement camber kit such as from Skunk2 or OmniPower.

IMHO this sounds like a pretty weak setup. You have lots of sliding parts (both bolts, the ball joint and each bolt holding it), any of which can slide out of adjustment if you hit a large bump or dip.

Also with the Ingalls-type setup, I've heard it's fairly difficult to adjust those and keep each bolt on each UCA straight such that bushings don't bind up and caster doesn't get all out of whack. Not to mention with both kits combined you'll likely end up with serious clearance issues. The UCA may not even fit at all inside the shock tower, which would make it unusable.

So the answer is very likely no, it would not work at all, due to limited clearance under the shock tower.

more moving parts=more areas of potential failure
