Thanks dude!! Very helpful. I am getting a camber kit when I get my new suspension and I was wondering what was involved. This helped a lot.

Now only if I can find a pair of ****s to straighten my pin and tap it through my castle nut!! LOL

wow! yeah this was a very good write up and definitely agree with what PatrickGSR94 is saying about the CV slipping out. Happened to me, too.

Gonna save the money now to get me a SK2 pro camber kit.
Now that I'm riding on extended top hats (1.25") and Illuminas...I want to keep the tires from wearing quicker.

kool write up, I was looking for some info like this a while back.

supracrx · 02-11-2008, 07:00 PM

the blox ones just crapped out on me....not sure why but the parts where the ball joint slides is starting to fold......didn't even hear it or notice until a coworker and sat in my car

lee0149 · 02-12-2008, 10:46 AM

is that the same for the backs??

Rear camber kits have a completely different set up.

elwuudz2 · 02-22-2008, 06:25 PM

I used your DIY today and did the same exact thing only cleaner.... on my del sol

but I am a fool.... I forgot to re-align the a-arms and tighten the allen head bolts so the right side slid to full negative and the driver-side slid to full positive I realized this after accelerating a few times and my steering wheel was mis aligned 45deg to the right or so

after aligning, re-tightening and tightening ti-rods and a quick adjustment on my rear camber kit the car seems to put down more power; or just my poor mans alignment with a level and plum bob did the trick

new ball joints also solved my hard steering problem.

thanks honda-tech & thank you military auto hobby shop with all your expensive equipment I use for cheap as hell

I salute you gsrob. Great thread bro.

king15 · 05-25-2008, 09:54 AM

hows the quality?
i have a full ingalls setup and they are complete trash, both front and rear were sqeeking over the slightest road imperfection, I have already removed the front kit and returned it to stock, the bushings were completely destroyed after just a few months of normal driving, there was also lots of rust, it looked really unsafe for front suspension. is there any interference issues with the chassis seam that is located above the upper control arm, mine had to be smashed flat when I adjused the camber to a factory setting with a 2-3 inch drop,

spatpho · 09-02-2008, 12:09 PM

Very helpful DIY on installing front camber kit. I'm hoping to do mine very soon.

lyzer227 · 09-10-2008, 06:45 PM

Good write up

geeman510 · 12-07-2008, 06:30 PM

Did you have to grease pack the ball joints on the camber kit? The ones I have had to be greased packed. I just lowered by 97 4dr GS with full skunks, but couldnt remove the stock ball joints. So I had to save that camber upgrade for another day.
