I'm heading outside to install an ingalls rear camber kit. How can I get my camber close enough until I get an alignment monday? Measure the control arm and make it the same? Eyeball it?

Thanks

make it the exact same length as the stock +1/4" and you should be okay for a couple days.

I made them like 1/4 longer and the right side hits the fender now :mad:

Time to roll the fender lip a little and get an alignment asap.

Eibach sportlines with 215-45/17 ecsta supras on 17x7.5 +42mm rims.

It's not as bad as I thought. I went out today and noticed the left side had hit the fender also. (I could see the tire shine stuff on it). So I shortened the drivers side control arm by about 1/8" and shortened the passenger side by about 1/4" and all is well. Seems to me I messed up the length of the passenger side when i installed them. I can see the negative camber now though. Alignment monday.

But I would also like to say that everyone basically said "no problems at all!" when i asked about my spring/tire/wheel offset combo. It's not that easy...everything is pretty close in there. But it does work.
