CAMBER help!
ok, my camber is off i believe the inner part of my tire is wearing down its bald at 600 miles and i can tell that that the wheel isnt placed right, the right front wheel also sits lower than the rest but it doesnt look like anything is bent or broken the shock and spring look fine but its having extreme tire wear on the inside. If any one has had this problem let me know how you solved it or if you know anyway.
Also what kind of camber kits are there and the prices i only found one and its like 350!

The simple fix is to have an accredited tire shop put it on the laser rack and check out the alignment as well as the camber, IMHO !

Before you buy anything, get it on alignment rack and figure out whether it really is a camber issue. Negative camber alone is not necessarily that hard on tires...unless it's combined with toe out...that can be a killer.
Do you have stock suspension? Camber is not adjustable stock, so if you have one side clearly off, something is broken/bent.
The cheapest camber kit is the notched bolt from Chrysler...could get you in the neighborhood of 0.5 degrees in either direction.

the first step is always to get the car on an alignment rack and see what is going on. One front corner sitting low is bizzare and should be checked out. Has the car ever been wrecked? done a car fax on it? i would adress the ride height issue first. Toe has a bigger impact on tire edge wear than camber and is adjustable.
