How do I tell if I have camber kits?
How do I tell if I have camber kits?
Last year I was in a minor accident that screwed up my alignment. When they couldn't get it aligned properly they said I needed a camber kit to adjust the front and rear. Well I'm thinking of lowering my car and don't know if I'll need a camber kit for the front and rear. I probably wont lower it that much, but it would be nice to know if I have the kits so adjustments can be made if necessary. Is there anywhere I can search on here for pictures of what a camber kit for the front and rear look like? From what I understand the kit for the rear is just a couple of bolts...any help would be greatly appreciated...Thanks

The top link is the rear SPC/Eibach version, bottom link shows the front camber bolts. It will be real easy to tell if you have the rear set, a little harder on the fronts.

The OEM camber kit looks exactly the same as the SPC but less adjustibility. The front is just some special bolts.

You should have a pro look at it or something to see what is all bent then try to find it in a junk yard and replace it urself then lower it and then get an alingment that is what id do !!!!!!!! Everytime u get into an accident no matter how hard or how slow you should atleast have some one look at it even tho u can fix it yourself beacuse things can be bent just like mm's or even like 1/4 of an inch i cant see that can u????
oh I didn't put the kits on myself, i did have the pros look at it, the collision shop is actually the one who told me i needed the kits, so i took it to my normal tire shop and had them install the kits, the camber/castor wasn't that far off so if something was bent, it wasn't too bad....if anything else, I got a free camber kit out of it....
Give me a call so we can work this issue out with you. We are the camber kit leaders! www.camberkit.com

If your going to be racing I definately reccomend a front and rear aftermarket camber kit since you have a lot more play with the kit(adjustment). How ever if your not racing and your dropping the car about 1.5 inches a rear aftermarket camber kit would be recomended to be able to adjust the alignment enough so that you don't improperly wear your tires.
