Camber Kit Q
Hi i recently bought a rear camber kit and going to purchase a front one soon from Greg. I was wonder if it's better to do it yourself and save some money or take it to a shop and do it. I know it is not that hard to install but i dunno about the degree's and etc. can someone tell me how that works if i do plan to install it myself with friends? thanks

Rep Power: 318 It's easy to do. Just remember that on the rear, you have to loosen the bolt, NOT the nut. (The nut is permanantly attached to the hub carrier). I think I wasted 1/2 an hour trying to loosen that SOB up. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 416 keep in mind the place you get it installed at isnt going to really adjust it for you. i'd say save the money and install it yourself but use that money you saved and get an alignment

Rep Power: 0 anybody out there know what the standard charge is for installing these camber kits. I'd like to do it myself but don't know if I have the tools. What kind of killing would I be in for if I had the shop install them for me?

Rep Power: 416 i heard shops charge $100 which is ridiculous.. what tools do you really need.. jack stand and wrench, even if you dont have the tools, it wont be anywhere near $100 to buy them
