Spc shims??
I know the shims are for the front but I need 2 degrees positive in the rear and was wondering if its possible to somehow use the shim in the rear??

Spc told me to get another set of toe bolts and put them on the inner subframe where the camber arm bolts too and elongate the hole.. Does this sound right??

I'd trust them. Wouldn't be the first time I've heard spc or SPL tell their G customers about improvising a little on how to get positive camber.

He said they use the same bolts as toe bolts and to elongate the hole towards the wheels and u get 2+ degrees of camber..

That should work, never thought of it before. As long as you don't do much high performance driving they'll be fine. I hate those @$%@#$ toe bolts... lol

I def agree. I could see slipping being a big big issue.

What u saying?? To put lock washers on the bolts so the camber doesn't change?? Doesn't the bolt already have something on them so they hold still??

yea but there's a lot more pressure where the camber arms are as compared to the toe bucket...theres only a washer on one side of their toe bolts, i wouldn't trust it
