um...your thread confuses me. i dont really know what your asking...

blitz911 · 08-21-2007, 05:21 PM

i think he's asking if he needs 2 pairs(sets) instead of one...

NIGHTHAWKSI · 08-21-2007, 05:27 PM

front camber needs ONE PAIR of bolts to adjust
rear camber needs ONE PAIR of camber arms to adjust

You are wrong and right.

If you use the stock bolts on the front (two on each side) then you cannot adjust the camber. In order to adjust the camber on the front, you will need to install either one or two adjustable camber bolts on each side. Installation of two camber bolts on each side will increase the level of adjustability. If you want some adjustability, get one set of camber bolts, if you want more adjustability, then get two sets.

For the rear, you are correct in that only one set of camber arms are needed. SPC and Skunk2 have adjustable ones. I've installed both and personally like the Skunk2 ones better.

Thanks for the help all. Iv got 1 pr. of Ingalls and want to 1.5 camber in the
front. would one pair do it ?

Highrev1 · 08-21-2007, 06:51 PM

Probably not....But you can get a little more by putting it in either the upper or the lower mounting location, I forget which one gives more - camber

blueroadster · 08-21-2007, 07:01 PM

Getting -1.5 camber on the front will depend on how much you are lowering the car. I'd get another set of bolts just in case.

Forklift352 · 08-21-2007, 07:58 PM

Well, Ok.

i was curious about that....

Well, the poor mans solution to adjustability is to just elongate the holes on the bottom of the strut where the stock bolts connect. That way you would not have to spend anything on adjustable camber wobble bolts and yet have the same or more adjustability.

a pair of camber bolts is only 35 bucks, and probably easier to specifically adjust.

of all the things we waste money on for our cars, 35 bucks is chump change to spend on something as important as adjusting camber.

Forklift352 · 08-22-2007, 02:09 AM

Well i just got 1 pair for now. Had I even had a clue that I would need
2 pair I would have figurd that in the saving prosses.I got my skunks to
day,and was saving for springs.Just now I gots to get 1 more pair of Ingalls.
Im just tryen to pay cash for mods.That way Im not diggen a debt hole,
like so many people do.Besides I think is more exsighting to hold on to
those well ernd parts till your masterpice is ready for instal.
Sorry for the ramblin I work 3 jobs and I start a new day at 1130 pm.tonight
so I cutten in to my nap time.

If you have a shop manual, the use of two in the front is also mentioned there. It says that you can either use one on each side or two on each side for more adjustability.

asdf0123 · 08-22-2007, 12:06 PM

i guess it all works out.. i can rock 2 in the front then. i wasn't really going to trip since i got my 2nd pair for cheap..i figured i would of made money either way i look at it...probably i'll end up have the adjustability will be key now.

mattsbobo · 08-22-2007, 07:10 PM

I'm only using one set up front, and it seems to be working just fine. Of course, I'm not adjusting my camber on the fly either.

**Nomar06** · 08-22-2007, 07:52 PM

1 pair of ingalls camber bolts on he top mounting hole will get you to -1.5 camber. Im running that right now.

Forklift352 · 08-23-2007, 12:04 AM

Is your car lowered? I hardly got -0.5 degrees of camber using only one bolt in either hole.
