I have them and they work great. If you are unsure of how to install them than I would suggest paying someone to install them. Just in case here is a DIY

DIY: SPC Front and Rear Camber Kits

I have the old ones that are not adjustable, I hate them. It's really hard to get a good alignment. Nice purchase.

I had skunk2's and I've switch to SPC now... being able to adjust your alignment without disconnecting the camber arm saves ALOT of time at the alignment shop. Considering you're probably paying upwards off $100+ just in labour getting alignments done over teh next couple years... definelty worth it IMO... its a shame that they don't make all rear camber kits like this one.

whitecivicsi · 05-28-2009, 01:08 PM

so are you guys saying that the new SPC rear camber arms better than the old ones?

meaning that you'll get a better alignment out of them? Someone please clarify...thanks

You might get a better alignment out of them since they are easier to adjust (you don't have to take the arm off to adjust them). How accurate the alignment actually is really depends on the guy doing your alignment.

alex jimenex · 05-28-2009, 11:20 PM

alright thanks. ima take it to somebody that does know how to install it cuz i dont want to mess anything up.

deotherhalf · 05-29-2009, 12:22 PM

Never heard of SPC busing issues.

Skunk2 supposedly updated their busing design. Only time will tell how their new bushings hold up.

cmr · 05-29-2009, 03:35 PM

mine have almost 8,000 miles on them and they are great.

jawbreakingrr · 05-29-2009, 06:52 PM

how about ingalls? are they easy to adjust? any bushing issues?

fsxbob · 05-29-2009, 07:09 PM

good camber arms, the DIY on here is for the old camber arms and is slightly different than the new ones. So make sure you know exactly what to do with the new ones before starting this. you will also probably need breaker bar, mine only had 12000 miles when installed the SPC camber arms and the old ones were a pain to get off, luckily my friend had his breaker bar and we got it off.

Umm, that sounds... wrong.
If it's not adjustable, what the hell was the point of the arm?

The SPC arms, the old style solid looking ones, were adjustable without taking them off the car as well.
