Rep Power: 0 Which to get
So I want to get a rear camber kit for the spring time ... Not because I am getting huge tire wear or nothing ... but just that the slant of the tire is starting to bug me.
So here is the choices at Dezod.com http://dezod.com/cat_camber_kits.cfm
I've heard that the Ingalls kits are good, but have no idea the difference between rubber or poly bushings. Rubber is more .. but I thought poly was better.
Anyways ... how are those prices too ? Do they sound high or are they reasonable.
Anyways, if you guys know any places better or can get a connection somewhere let me know.

Rep Power: 292 aight...for camber...
never buy a front kit. you can build yourself a front camber kit for about $0.40 from crappy tire. It's just a different sized bolt.
for the ingalls kit: that's expensive! Get polyurethane, though...polyurethane will make the ride a LITTLE less comfortable and a bit louder, but you ALWAYS get better performance out of polyurethane...it doesn't 'give' as much as rubber...so it forces your suspension components to work they way they are designed.
I got my kit from www.robearracing.com before he got big. This was like, three years ago, though...he doesn't carry the same kit anymore. It's essentially the same as ingalls, but for both the front and rear, he wanted $115. And, you could get 5% off wih the '7thgen5off' coupon code.
search around for a better price. I KNOW you can find one...don't be lazy

Rep Power: 0 dude, the link doesnt work ... out of business maybe ? Jim, Jimmy, Jimsta ... man I know you got the goods ... where else can I find good prices (online etc) ?
Andrew ... aight man I'm down with you ... we'll buy ours together, when we find a good price ... you know of any places ?
I'm kinda thinking I dont mind ordering them soon, cause of the winter season ... maybe prices will be down at a few places.

Rep Power: 292 ? Link works fine for me...
anywho, PM "peteriap" from the site. He just had a group buy for the ingalls rear camber kit in december...see if he either wants to get another one going, or if you can get a discount because you're a member on the site and have three people interested.
http://www.iapdirect.com/item.asp?invid=68
that's his site....a link to the product. He wants $125 for the rear kit...so I'm sure you could squeeze him down to $125 shipped.
g'luck.

Rep Power: 0 isnt there a group buy going on, or there was. maybe even in retail sales. I just got mine (SPC) from a wholesale wharehouse in AZ. Was 129.11 picked up like 10 minutes away. Call SPC and see if they have a wholesale dealer in Ontario. You never know, thats how I found the place I got mine, somebody else called though.

Rep Power: 0 This is what "peteriap" replied with ... seems like he is good to his word and willing to help us out with a deal.
"Mike,
Thank you for contacting us. I can probably do $10 off the rear kits or offer you the front and rear set for $135 if you can get 5 guys together. How did you want them shipped? We can do either UPS or U.S. UPS will be cheaper on shipping but they charge you guys brokerage fees on top of customs charges. U.S. does not charge the brokerage fee as far as I know.
Let me know if you have any questions. Price will be the same for rubber or poly.

I'm thinking I'd want the $10 off, cause our fronts are fine the way they are. So if Erik is in that is the 4th person, we just need 1 more. His price listed is $125 for the rear, so $10 off = $115 US
Hmm, $115 USD that is per corner right ? or am I just an idiot ?
