        do you have problems with the control arm hitting the fender? if not you just need to push the camber all the way out and fin a good alignment shop. one that specialize in lowered car.

            Here are the materials needed: 4 M10 x 1.25 x 50mm long bolts. Use atleast grade 8 if not higher. The grade 8s can be bought at advanced auto, but you have to ask for them. You will also need washers. I used smaller washers to fine tune it. The washers I used were SAE 3/8" (9,5 mm). I used 7 washers on each bolt, which fixed ~-2.15 and ~-2.06 on the rear. It took about 3 to take out a degree in camber. The stock bolts can take up to 3 on each bolt, I would not go any farther than that. Those are the new washers and the old small inadequate bolt.

            Here goes:

            1. Jack up the rear of your car and support with jack stands or two jacks. Make sure it is stable as the bolts my need a little persuasion.
            2. Remove on wheel and you should see the bolts as pictured



            4. Take them out and put the washers on the other side of the are against the body to push out the wheel. This will take two hands, one to hold the washers, and one to feed the bolt through.


            5. Tighten the bolts back by hand pretty tight, replace the wheel, repeat on the other side, and then TAKE IT TO GET ALIGNED!!

            Hope that helps everyone

              I bought a Progress camber block kit, and its doing its job fairly well. I've still got like 1 deg. of neg. camber but thats not bad for me being dropped about 2.25 inches all the way around.
