Question Camber adjustment?

Ive searched, but didnt really find a way to adjust the camber myself. Is there one? I just finished puting the kits in yesterday, and im geting my new tires mounted today. and if its possible I wont to adjust teh camber when i put my rims back on without bringing it to an alignment shop. Boillermaker said something about using a plumbob and ruler, but im not really sure how. And help would be great.

thanks

o yeah, I have neuspeed race springs, and goldline camber kits if that matters. I really dont want to drive around on my new tires untill the camber is somewhat close to 0.

just use the camber kit. did you set the rear the way you were supposed to when you put it in? use the screws to set it somewhat close to stock. you can get a camber ruler. I think hondawerx or dezod has them for around $85.

I would still suggest getting a true alignment

What I did as an interim fix was make my SPC kit about 3/8" longer then stock in the rear for my Eibach Sportlines. This was just a temp fix until I could get it aligned properly. Your length will probably need to be different.
