Remember to follow the instructions provided with the kit.

The upper arm anchor nuts are located under the hood on top of the inner fender:

Left Above Inner Fender






Right Above Inner Fender


Although it says it is not necessary to remove the front strut/spring assembly, we made our lives easier by doing so:




Lay the pivot brackets on paper and line them up accordingly. Depending on the amount of negative camber measured, install each stud in the appropriate hole. We labeled them so that we wouldn't have to refer back to the diagram.



Prior to installing studs into the hole, be sure to drop the thread locking compound in each stud.



My lowered height was 1.5



It’s hard to see. Here you grease the surface on bushing.





Out with the old



Install pivot brackets into the control arms in the location designated by the assembly diagram. It’s not pictured but be sure to remember to grease the outer surface of the sleeve.





In the process we also removed my resonator.






The end result

good info

 

thanks,nice write up.

 

damnit, none of the pics work, and i need to do this soon

 

Sometimes it's like that. Don't worry about it. It's not as hard as it looks. It makes it easier if you have Snap-On tools. It took 30-45 minutes for entire procedure.

 

I just did this a few months ago.. and what do you know, turned out great.

Nice and clear directions

 

i just got the progress camber kit...haven't put it on yet though...how do you like it? did you notice a nice difference..many people were telling me to get the skunk2 or omni when i was searching around but i already had the full coilover by progress and i liked them so i figured i'd keep it with the same company..glad to see im not the only one with the progress kit

 

Very nice!! At least you got your camber kit on now!

 

You make it look so easy!
Nice write-up!

 

how much did that kit set you back???

 

Thanks guys. All props should go to kgrcr1 and eg6si. As far as handling it's a little stiff. I've yet to get my alignment because Discount Tire Centre's always booked. I'll get it done tomorrow.

I paid $127 for the kit. Generally they're $155 here.

 

Atta boy, get the lifetime alignment!

 

Mr. Abdul quoted me $149.95 but there's a $20 discount!

I'm heading there first thing in the mornin'

The one on Fountain Ave.

 

i love the way you use your hands to show what your doing.

 

What can I say I love to get "down and dirty"

The UCA, resonator and such were eg6si's and kgrcr1's.

I picked up mine for 80 bucks shipped.

It was new from a guy that never installed it.

 

to eliminate that squeek, could you use the Energy suspension booshings from the Master kit on the progress kit????

Wowzers you got a great deal! Good for you! That $127 was a hookup price too.

As far as the energy suspension bushings, I'm not sure. All I know is that you've got to use the grease on the outer surface of the bushing as well as inside of it. I haven't heard any squeeks.

I just installed the rear section tonight. Pain in the *** though because I didn't have a 3 ton floor jack. I had one of those crappy ones. Will post later

 

How does this kit compare to Ingalls?

I wish I could tell you. Judging from posts I've searched Ingalls squeek.

But I thought all you had to do was apply the thread locking compound and the bushing grease and you're all set?

And here's another but for

Progress

Once everything's been aligned and I get a feel for it, I'll post feedback to the best of my ability. Right now as it stands I only have one more to do: right rear section.

 

I have this exact same camber kit for sale guys, check my signature!!!

 

how about that alternator belt ?
