Unhappy Where to Start.......

I know this goes in the Sup. forum but i never get any help. I just wanted to see what i can get in here first.

Well I got my SPC camber kit and started the install today little after noon. I started with the spacers, the hub spacers went on fine. The day went down hill after that. The spacers that goes on the caliper does not work with my wilwood kit. I had to cut the spacer in half to make it fit. Then I started with the A arm. I got that on but I could not get the bushing off the OEM A arm. So i had to reinstall the OEM one. After all this I get in my car to start backing up and my wheel starts to turn to the right. Do you think it might be that i only install one side of the spacers? I just ran out of time. Then the slip/ABS/VDC light all light up. What do I need to do?

The spacer is suppose to add like 2 degrees of positive camber so that might be the reason its pulling right.

I really wish those selling the SPC kits would inform people of needing to either rent a tool to get the cone sleeve (bushing) off or recommend that you pick up some new ones from your local Nissan dealer (I think their like $13 each). That is, if you are going to attempt the install yourself. The same sleeve is used for the compression rods as well. I had to pick some up from my local Nissan dealer.

When I did my friends kits (front and rear) a few weeks ago, I rented this tool set from Kragen and spent about 15 min on each A-arm before the sleeves finally came loose. You can also look to rent a Pitman arm puller. That migth work as well.
