Default Camber...

So,
My Teins and sway bars are going in soon...

Im going to lower the vehicle, and am a bit confused as to what is available to adjust the camber on all four corners.

I have aftermarket 19x8 fronts and 19x10 rears on order. Is there a way right now to get camber back to spec? What will I need? Moreover, what is available?

I've searched all over, and can't quite put all of the information I need together. There seems to be a lot of different manufacturers for various different parts.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Fall-Line.

JIC Rear camber Rods "camber adjustment"
JIC Rear Traction rods "Toe adjustment"
JIC Front camber plates "camber adjustment"

This is what you would need to correct camber on the front and back. Email Paul@avalonracing.net he can set you up.

JIC = INSANE pricing... if you ask me JIC can go to hell ..... $430 for 2 camber rods and another $430 for traction rods?

f*ck that..... I'll make my own from 4130 aircraft steel and AN hardware for 1/5th of that.

I've gone so far as to take measurements, ordered the AN rod ends, but haven't got the 4130 tube yet.

I've even thought about cutting the stock rods and shortening the camber rod by about .2" and lengthening the traction rod by about .15" then rewelding them back together.

Not adjustable, but who cares.... so long as they fix the problem.

The fittings are what develops the cost. Tubing is dirt cheap and a retard can weld it, its those fancy fittings that develop any/all of the cost. Regardless its still pretty cheap. I was GOING to start making them then someone mentioned that company in Australia that makes cheapy camber/toe bushings that are adjustable.

I wish someone had a cheaper option. I spent about $900 on the rear. And I still need to get the front. JIC knows they are the only option right now so they do bend you over....
