DSCN2832.jpg?t=1305744581
step 4. remove ABS sensor bolt 10mm
DSCN2833.jpg?t=1305744581
step 5.remove the 4 14mm bolts that hold on the drum assembley
DSCN2834.jpg?t=1305744704
step 6.remove assembley VERY CAFEFULLY!!!! and detatch the clips that hold the brakeline in place
DSCN2835.jpg?t=1305744704
DSCN2836.jpg?t=1305744704
move the assenbley off the hub and up above the hub BE CAREFULL!!
DSCN2839.jpg?t=1305744704
step 7. use the impact screwdriver with the 6mm alan socket and loosen the 6mm bolt BE VERY CAREFULL this bolt likes to strip!!.......
DSCN2837.jpg?t=1305744704
step 8. loosen the bolt enough so you can fit the washer behinde it and you can angle the hub enough so it sits flush
DSCN2838.jpg?t=1305744704
for the washers i used a standered 5/8 square washer from home depot they cast about 25 cents each but they are steele washers
DSCN2828.jpg?t=1305745332
DSCN2829.jpg?t=1305745332
they start out being .121 i shaved one at a angle to flat wise to .098 then the otherone from corner to corner at a angle to .102
front washer is .102
rear washer is .098
and that will compensate for the toe the washer get put in on the bottom bolts the front one going towards the front of the car has .102 and the rear one has .098
DSCN2838-1.jpg?t=1305745980
then you put it all back together in reverse for extra safety put some blue thread locker on the 14mm bolt that hold the assembley together just so the dont move but they wont just to have a little safety in the back of your head once you put it back together it will look like this

nope not yet but got to go soon tires are starting to feather from toe being out of adjustment but you know what they say got to pay to play!!
p.s. i have way more camber than the other fits i have done 1_bad_fit was at -3 and i have way more i might be around -5 or 6 pictures dont really do justice everyone that sees it in person says that but if i had smaller more stretch tires it would look more aggresive

no tourqe spec just snug back to where it use to to be if over tighten it will overheat the bearing to have issues and the 4 holes are mostly ther for the balance of the hub
