well thanks for i guess checking this and not answering. i got it all figured out they didnt send the wrong one and i didnt order the wrong one. they just didnt put a foot note on there about there being 2 different sizes

2 different sizes???

The only thing I had to do was loosen the bottom bolt also.

As explained by an SPC tech to me: The 06 civic si had a running change on the size of nut and bolt used on the front lower strut mount. I don't remember the part # for mine sorry. How they have you check which size is needed you fit a box wrench over the threads of the oem bolt for correct fitment it was one of two size box wrenches they had me try and ordered the front camber bolt accordingly. Try calling spc I am sure they can clear this up for anyone with questions.

They are the wrong ones you need a 12 mm cam bolt the spc ones listed are 14mm the same thing happend to me. Just get any 12mm cam bolt out of a universal allignment kit it will fit.

bodydraggin · 07-19-2006, 09:15 AM

when i called them the first time they told me i needed the 16mm camber bolt lol. i call them back asking why it wont fit. the lady played stupid as alwayz. i finally got her to check the computer again and she actually admited she was wrong. she wouldnt do anything about being wrong but she was wrong. so she told me i had to buy another camber kit. so now i got 2 camber kits and prolly wont ever buy from spc again. but oh well i got it figured out im just waiting on the new bolts. thanks

i used the 14mm from ingalls and it worked okay but have you guys noticed there is still not that much of an adjustment...

bodydraggin · 07-19-2006, 07:01 PM

i dont think i need much of a adjustment mine looks really good the way it is. im just wanting it perfict. im anal about my alignments i dont know why just alwayz have been. get it done every 6 months just to make sure once with the summer rims and once with the winter rims then once the summer rims go back on back for another algnment

the part number needed for front camber kit for the 06 civic is 81260
812 is the actuall camber correcter. the 60 part is the part number for the bolt. 80 is a bolt that is too big, u need 60

does the spc kit really make a huge difference with the alignment... i didnt have a camber kit on my integra and i had it dropped like 2.5 inches and it was fine as long as i rotated the tires... i want to get the s-techs and im wondering if this camber kit is worth getting

bodydraggin · 07-25-2006, 07:00 PM

i alwayz do camber kits with anything i drop no matter what. its basicly just a part of doing it right and not having to worry if the camber is set right.
