Re: Alignment & Camber Kit
I DRIVE a limited roadster Ebiach Pro springs and KYB gas adjust for crossfire. (Bumpstops not trimmed) I just had a thought and I have read as many camber posts as I can find..... SRT sway bar has a different diameter than the limited and base. Assuming your lowered about an inch to an inch and a half, is it possible that an aftermarket camber arm kit that doesn't cost $1000+, would not make contact with the limited/base sway bar? At least up front. I don't have significant tire wear on the inside of the rears, but I haven't done a trip to the Dragon yet and I have 1 exit turn between where I live and where I work, so im only driving in a straight line(for the most part). I hear that KMACs are noisy and this is my daily driver. I also like the look of arms....there I said it. Assuming a suspension refresh/upgrade does not include the very popular sway bar swap to SRT, is there a chance that a lot of the owners reporting contact are also those that chose the sportier model to start? If it's possible, then a bushing upgrade on the stock base/limited car for the sway bar in the back might be a way to tighten up the back a bit and also allow base/limited owners to opt for the easy to install and more attractive camber arms. ALSO, I've seen an Addco rear sway bar and was curious if that came with adjustable sway links? Any one try this combo yet on the limited/base? I'm ready to start focusing on driving this car more than tinkering. (Yeah right) It would be nice if someone could just put it all together in the $2-300 range and categorize the options...ie straight bars could work on base/limited with stock rear sway...Addco...adjustable links... then SRT stock sway and springs, Bent Arms..etc. I know there have been some DIY posts that are quite impressive, that seem to require drilling out holes... one more variable, because my bump stops were not trimmed( couldn't figure out how to get to them until after I paid to have them installed.)my limited might not make contact with the 20mms of bump stop I should have trimmed. I guess that's not so bad but.. a plug and play would help me a bunch to pull the trigger on a solution. Please PM me links to solutions as I am sure there is an easy answer somewhere already.
