Camber Kit Install

Anyone have pics of the front/rear SPC camber kit install job? I am going to do that this weekend and wanted to make sure that all the parts worked and that I was looking at something familiar. Also seeing some threads about teh front kits not being right even though the part number is. Has SPC fixed that issue? Appreciate any advise you might before i take her apart.

Rear install is kind of a pain in the arse. I don't have any pics but it's kind of a tight fit at times. I didn't do too much of the install since a friend of mine that owns a performance shop was doing it. I was back there with them helping and one of the biggest pains was getting the new bolts to fit into the stock setup. It took longer than expected, but when it came together it worked nicely. Definitely have some help handy while doing it. It's gonna be a whole lot easier with an extra set of hands.

Where can I get a good deal on the SPC rear camber arms? $265 seems like a lot.
I have Ingalls rear camber arms with polyurethane bushings on my Integra and they only cost around $120. The rear upper arms are pretty small anyway. I don't see why the cost is so high. Maybe I 'll wait for Ingalls. I 've had them on my Integra for 2yrs and no problems so far. The bushings on a pic I saw of the SPC kit look very small. The Ingalls bushings are much larger.

The only problems I had while doing the install on the rear was space issues. Not to much space for the correct tools to go in there and do the correct job. Now doing the work with a lift would be different story.

I got it all done in about 4 hours. The fronts take longer but after the first one no p roblems. She's lowered and settling. Wheels come next week will post pics after that.
