SPC and Stock suspension problem

well i got my SPC rear camber arms and had my dad take the car to have them installed and aligned since im in college full time and working.

He got back and the tech said it wouldnt work.

What gives, will the SPC arms not work on stock height?

i personally didnt get to see it. According to my dad the tech installed them using both holes and said there wasnt enough adjustment. They got fed up and put the stock arms back on. I was in class the day he took it and didnt get to see what went on with the install.

Im just sick of my rear tires wearing bad. Why oh why honda did you not give us camber adujustment stock.

So they can't allow people to loop their cars....But they were probably installed backwards...

Maybe bring them to your dealer to see if they will help?

yeah go to the SPCperformance website and print out the install instructions. They are the correct ones. Burn the ones that came with the kit because they tell how to install them backwards.

yea, wrong isntallation. they work. but the brackets are very picky about how they get mounted. double check your instructiosn pictures and moutning brackets. im sure they are backwards. there is another thread around here w/ pictures that the guy has a similar problem.
EDIT: study the pictures of how the brackets are mounted, and teh one i drew on.
Rear camber won't adjust help!!!
