I own a g2 Integra, and its lowered 2.5 inches with H&R race springs and AGX & GR2 combo for shocks. I found out that I was over 1 degree worse on the front left side than on the front right. Is this normal, because now my car pulls to the right. I thought it could be because of the unequall camber, but it could be from a bent suspension peice or somthing. I just want to know if its normal to have front camber that is over 1 degree worse on 1 side than the other? thanks.

 

If the ride height is the same on both sides it may be caused by damaged suspension parts. However, 1 full degree seems like a lot to me. I could see a small amount of difference due to ride height differences due to weight.

I would get an alignment as see if the shop can see anything. IF everyhting is OK a camber kit should correct that.

Tell the guy aligning it to get out of the car when he aligns it. LOL j/k

Yea all cars are different and it could be from a bent suspension piece. Maybe your car was in a serious wreck in it's earlier day???

 

Has the car ever taken a blow to the wheels or any suspension parts? You may have a bent control arm which is bad news all over...

 

I have the same problem. Front right has about 1 degree more negative camber than the front left. Upper (replaced) and lower control arm are straight, the wheel bearing also replaced under warranty. I'm gonna take it to a good front end shop and have them take a look at it. Could be the knuckle is bent.

 

afaik theyre intended to be different by design to offset the driver's weight

 

Why would it be bad news all over? Any other ideas or opinions?

 

with my old LS one side cambered in more than the other, i took it back to have it realigned and they did the best they could. it still cambers a lil bit but not as much as before.

 

Are u sure you didnt put one of the front springs in the back and vice versa?

 

well it's only bad news if you don't get it fixed and you're camber is really bad. I knew a guy that was in an accident with his '00 GS-R and the rear control arms were never really fixed (he got it fixed at some crackhead's bodyshop). His back right wheel had HELLA negative camber, he was riding on belts in less than 2 months.

 

I have a 97 LS and my front diver side wheel has always had more negative camber then the passenger front wheel, even with the Ingalls camber kit. I am the original owner and the car has not been in any serious wrecks. I think it's just the way the car was manufactured. When I get it aligned the techs say that it is within specs and is ok. You're okay too bud!
