my civic has the washer “kit” on it and it’s not worth it for me. next step is LCA’s and those are needed pretty bad. TEIN basic coilovers with a 205 50 16 the washers don’t do too much ---

TEIN basic coilovers with a 205 50 16 the washers don’t do too much LCA’s don’t correct negative camber very much at all. I’ve been through three sets of LCA’s and still needed three washers to get to -.5 degrees. ---

The whole purpose to the camber kit is to be able to adjust the camber (the degree of the alignment of the wheels along its perpendicular axis to the ground) without the hassle of purchasing new wheels or other shop adjustments thus reducing damage to the tire and making them last longer.Camber kits are used on various makes and models of vehicles that have a coil spring suspension and a two-inch performance accessories coil spring suspension lift. Install the new control arm by loosening the locking nuts and twisting the control arm on both sides until they stop. Don’t do them together with the center piece. Put the old control arms next to the new ones and use the center piece to adjust the length of the new one. Tighten the new bolt back on before putting the new control arm’s ball joint on and tightening it. Put in a new locking pin, bending it to keep it in place. Tighten up the bushing bolt and take the control thread arm out three inches for every inch that it is dropped. Tighten up the locking nuts and put the wheel back on. Inspect and test the suspension to ensure it is done correctly.
