Default something about a camber kit and an alignment...

i bought f&r ingall's camber kit because my car was too low and i thought you have to get an aligment when you put this sheiiit on right? put the camber kit on and took it to several places to get my aligment and all the places told me that they can't align my car because it is lowered and that it won't spec to what it is supposed to...so is there a special place to get this done or am i going to have to sell these expensive little things and raise my car up some?

you should call the company that makes the springs and they should be able to tell you the spec then you tell them what the specs are and then get it allined

Hey Kevin, I don't know if you ever found a shop to do the alignment or not, but I used Savannah Tire when my 98 LX was dumped about 2.5 - 2.75" on Ground Controls. I actually got to watch the entire process and it was a breeze to adjust the skunk2 kit and toe. The rear was shimmed out with washers and longer bolts so the guy just adjusted the toe to 0.

It only took a few minutes to do the entire wheels.

PS <> I found this thread because I was searching through threads you posted looking for pics / specs of the motor & turbo Later!
