I plan on buying a set of Maxspeed springs, which are only a 1.5" front and 1.3" rear drop. Will I need to get a camber kit? If so, anyone have any experience with OBX camber bolts? How difficult are they to install and adjust?

They have adjustments up to 1 degree, which should be plenty for my drop, but do I need them? I already have a set of KYB GR-2s on the way and I'd like to install everything at one time. Thanks in advance.

 

I think it depends, but with a 1.5" drop it's almost for sure you won't need any camber bolts. Just get your alignment tested after you install them. I have the tokico drop (1.5, 1.3) and my left and right camber is right about -1, which is just on the line of factory spec, so it's fine. I'd imagine if you dropped the car lower, you might run into larger problems with camber and require the bolts.

 

I have a 2+ inch drop, and i didnt have to get any alignment bolts. my alignment is within spec.

 

From what I've heard from other members, the only thing you should worry about is toe setting, read stickies for more info. Camber adjustment is not really necessary because there's really no adjustments for them. If they are off, its either the lower control arm bushings or a bent component somewhere. I wouldn't worry about bent components if you aren't taking your car offroading or if you have no other accidents with a curb.

 

Thanks everyone. I'll hold off on the camber bolts for now. Also, did any measure what their final drop was after a couple of weeks? I heard the suspension settles a bit.

 

I have H&R springs (1.5" drop) and my camber is just right at -1.0 degrees on both sides.
