rear camber

are any of you guys using any rear camber kits? any tried the rear washer trick?

also what is the natural camber we get from dropping? can anyone confirm that it is negative 1.5 degrees?

My alignment sheet says -1.9 is max acceptable tolerance. I've used springs 1 - 1.5 inch drop and I'm right at -1.9.

Just put washers behind your rims easy camber haha.. Since you gotta take off your brakes etc to install those shims I'd set
the camber before buying your rims so you can get the best size

i havent done it before but it looks pretty basic just a pain in the ass to do, and recheck because you gotta put everything back together and look at how much camber you have or you need a camber gauge and take it all apart for everytime you wanna adjust it a lil bit.. and since the spindle base is a machined surface and youre putting metal washers in there and making everything more crooked i dont wanna be responsible if your wheels break off..
