    Question about anchor bolt camber kit

    So i bought the ingalls camber kit, and before installing, i noticed a sort of "stop", on the part than slides through the fender well. Sort of a small snap ring, if you will.

    The problem is, it feels pretty sturdy, like its not suppose to come off. But if that's the case, why would they just put a ring there? Instead of just extending the cast a little bit.

    Has anyone else seen this?



    edit: i forgot to add, the pictures on the ingalls site, has this.

      first off those camber kits are garbage.now u went cheap,they are gonna keep comming loose then the bushing is gonna go then ur wheel IS gonna fall off just like mine did.only i got lucky i was at a stop and i sued them because i had some shop put them in.if u want a good camber kit for a decant price try tasauto. its the hole control arm with bushings.the rings close when they get tightned down in the strut tower...i beg u please dont use them.$40 is not worth ur life.

        Agree'd. Go to your local auto parts store, I'm sure they can get them as well. I work at part source in Canada and we can order them through keystone.

              I honestly don't know what that ring is for. I've wondered that myself. Even the knockoff kits have it, so it must serve some function.

              If anyone read, you would see that it IS an Ingalls kit. Just because it is an anchor bolt kit does not mean it is cheap, or that it will fall apart. Don't put this in the same category as the $40 Dropzone parts you can get on ebay. THOSE will break. This, if installed properly, will not.

              The ball joint kits require removal of the stock ball joint, which potentially weakens the already thin metal on the upper control arm. I'd be more afraid of doing that! Personally, the ONLY camber kit I would ever get is the TASauto.com upper control arm with the Ingalls ball joint already installed on a brand new UCA.

              92smokeaccord, you've become quite the authority lately... and you really don't know nearly enough to tell people how stupid they are, as the information you are giving doesn't show that you actually UNDERSTAND what you are saying. You're merely regurgitating what you read... and only about 60% of it is accurate. If you wish to give advice, please do so after you've gained some knowledge... and don't start putting people down because you don't like what they do... save that for when they're rude to you first.

                  I, much like yourself, can READ.
                  Im fully aware that the adjuster bolt MAY come loose. Thats why I also have a handy liquid, called LOCTITE. Once its adjusted, it doesn't need to be moved. Unless the suspension is altered.
                  And ill tell you now, If OEM honda rubberUCA bushings held up for 17 years, these semi-poly ones will be FINE for the time period i own my car.
