Time to buy front camber arms
#32
If you're doing just the arms then max out the positive camber when you install them. You wont need to adjust them after since you're only getting a degree of positive camber back. I've done this on every SPC install (done quite a few)
If you want the best arms for the money, get the SPL V2's. The new design is similar to the 350EVO's with almost half the price.

Your cross camber shouldn't be much different than stock, every time i've done an alignment on a car with SPC's maxed out, the cross camber is very little.
He would need to lift the front end of the car up (most modern alignment racks have built in jacks) Use a 27mm closed end wrench to loosen the nut, then push or pull on the wheel assembly to adjust the camber, tighten the nut back down. Then lower the car and make sure to jounce it or your alignment will be off as soon as you drive off (because the suspension is not settled in after being lifted up unless you jounce it)
But like i said, cross camber shouldn't be a problem.

yes, but there is a high chance that you wont need to adjust the front camber at all.

Gdup35sedan, do you know the best vendor to buy SPL V2 fronts from? I used SPC revised front for a year and had absolutely no problem with them, but I have an opportunity right now to upgrade so I may as well step up with something better.

On a sedan, no. Spec is -1.2 IIRC. But -1.5 is much, much better than -2.5. I'm at -2.5/-3 right now and my tires go pretty quick. Good thing i work at a tire shop
I dont know if any of the vendors here have the SPL V2's yet, i'm sure anyone who has advertised the V1 can get the V2.

I have the SPC front and rear.
For the front, Just the a arms itself was not enough, I did both the arms and the spacers.
I'm dumped to the floor with positive camber maxed out on the kit. It's at -1 right now. I estimate that my negative camber was close to -4 before the kit. Good thing I installed the kit and my coils on the same day.
The only thing is to get the ABS sensor back on straight. If its off it will throw mad error codes on yoru dash. Also there is a small dust shield that needs to be cut in order to clear the sensors after the spacers are installed. All in all a great investment IMO.
