if you use more than two washers, you should use longer bolts. and try to use stainless washers. last time i used galvanized and they rusted

NE ways, i read the article and it said every washer adds about +.5 degree. it also says i should add one washer per inch lowered. my car is dropped 2.25 inches in the back (no flames please!!) so would i need 2 washers or 3 washers? thanks..

I would also like to know how many washers and the correct size bolt for this much of a drop. I have the same amount of drop as "civicnightracer".

I think how many washers you add should depend on how bad ur camber is....not how low. Take it to an alignment shop and see how many degrees ur camber is off first.
