SPC camber kit SQEEKS?

Let me ask you this, when you installed the camber kit, did you tighten the bolts on it while the vehicle was jacked up? Or did you loosely install them, then lower the car, then tighten the bolts?

to me it sounds like you preloaded the bushings.

i preload the suspenion first than tighten the bolt up. so i m pretty sure i didn't preload the bushing.

The sound keep coming and going.... i think i should take it off and re-install

i'm having some squeeking after i installed my TEIN SS-P's .. i've had a rear camber kit for a long time, and it wasn't until i installed the teins did i hear the squeeking, and yes it only comes from the rear. SHould i just rub some greese all over the joints just to make sure?

and i heard if you cut the dust covers on the teins, you void the warrantee... be careful bro, those things are expensive, you want that warantee
