Default Skunk2 Camber Kit prep.

What exactly do you guys reccomend that I do to the Skunk2 kit to help it to not slip. I have read about taking a dremel to it to rough up the spots where the bolts contact the arm. Any other suggestions that you guys may have? Do you have any pics of a "slip-proof" kit?

I don't want it slipping at all

Also, after I get an allignment with the new kit installed, and I begin to make some camber changes, will I need to get an allignment after every adjustment? Are there clear dashes that indicate each degree of adjustment? Is it also safe to assume that changing the camber won't affect any other aspect of my allignment?

Thanks for any help.

some bolts with larger heads coupled with some lockwashers should help.

Any specific specs? I want to get the bolts before I get the kit (its on its way).

- There are no markings to indicate different camber settings.

- You should have your car re-aligned everytime you change the camber.

I have been running with the stock Skunk2 hardware with this kit for a year now with some very agressive track sessions (some driven with an ex-pro race driver who was flogging the car VERY hard) without ANY slippage. I used locking compound on the screws and made sure they were good and tight.

have you ordered the skunk arms yet? Dropspeed posted the new ingalls kit and it looked to be of a slightly better design.
