I didnt have to get a camber kit, all I did was have the 4 wheels aligned after the drop. The camber is also slightly adjustable as well if you needed to adjust it. Im also on stock shocks, im sure they will wear out faster, but I'll just go with adjustables later.

As for the ride, honestly I love it, im very happy with it. I sometimes forget it's lowered

edison...I know eveyone is different and everyone has different taste, but I like the back a little higher, and not for the look. I like it cuz when I have people sitting back there it evens out, if it was lower, I think it would look kinda weird when I carry people around.

No camber kit required, got it to within .1 % to stock...

This pic was within 1st week of lowering it, its lower now due to the settling in... I'll go take another pic later.....


My driveway sucks :


BTW I know my car is dirty.. (damn rain)
