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.
