how do you know what camber kit to buy? i just bought the goldline with a drop of 1.75in around so what would be the best camber to get for that application?

Camber kits all do the same job. You don't buy them based on your suspension. It's a fully adjustable camber arm. You could use it with any suspension set-up... even stock.

Are the Ingall's and SPC kits the exact same kit? I bought the Ingalls front and rear kits from www.robearracing.com and I believe they said SPC on them.

It's easy too adjust it by yourself but it takes some tools to figure out what exact degrees your wheels are at.

I said it's easy to adjust but didn't mention anything about finding a certain degree. FYI there is such a tool to measure camber without the use of a computer. I don't remember what it was called but someone mentioned of it on a thread in this forum.

If you want to be smart, at least know the 3rd grade difference between then and than.
