Alignment after drop...is it better to wait about a week and let springs settle before getting an alignment?

gonna do springs and rear camber install at same time.

Mookie469 · 03-09-2008, 11:35 AM

Does anybody know what would be the best setting for the camber after the drop and the alligment?

+/- What?

I would like my setting for thread life on the tires. I drive 110 miles comunting everyday, and right now my tires are paying back for it. The car already has a 1.5 inch drop by Tein S springs. I will appreciate the suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

-1 would prolly be best for ur commute...i think

Piotrush · 03-15-2008, 07:36 PM

good thread - I'm going to get the camber kit when I get the HFP suspension. I heard oem specs are F:0*, R:-2*; zero toe all around. I'm going to try to get it F:-1.75*, :-1.25*; zero toe all around. I just hope I don't have any rubbing issues with the 245 wide Potenzas

Mookie469 · 03-18-2008, 09:50 PM

I guess i can give it a try to -1.4 and zero toe. Does anybody has this sety up?

vince1128 · 03-22-2008, 08:13 PM

stuck mine on today, stopped bein lazy and did it. need an alignment, probably will go monday.extremely easy 3 bolts on each side and your done

vince1128 · 03-23-2008, 12:21 AM

also since it was lifted for about an hour my front springs still havent settled back down to what they normally sit at, but the back is all ready lower. so i think it may have lowered me in the rear a little bit. is that possible? the hole car was jack up so i cant understand. hopefully by morning the front will have settled down and ill compare it to the back again

justphuta · 05-06-2008, 12:46 AM

awesome thread

need help now..i put on some MEGAN springs on my si sedan. (1.5 drop)
pretty nice ride. now its time to put on my skunk2 rear cambers.

on a really low budget and would rather do set the alignment myself.
anyone have suggestions on what settings i should set my cambers??
MEGAN springs 1.5 drop...

btw. . .anyone else with megan springs??? seems like im the only one...lol

ortivt6 · 05-06-2008, 12:50 AM

mmm its going to be hard for u to set the camber arm at the right number without taking it to a professional... u can try but u wont know ho much negative camber u will have till u take it to a shop... plus when u intalled spring u need an alingment no matter what...

its very recommended... just installed the camber arm... and then save up for the alignment...

dannyd86 · 05-12-2008, 06:03 PM

I just got the Skunk2 camber arms. I also purchased SPC front camber bolts.
I'm going to be installing springs (Sportlines) at the same time.

I was skimming through this thread and read that the front camber bolts aren't necessary. Why is that?

ortivt6 · 05-12-2008, 06:05 PM

cuz the front ones dont need adjustment once u installed the sportline... after u get an alignment u be fine... dropping on sportlines did not affect my camber in the front...
