Sorry Im a noob, but need help on LCA, so please bare with me. Right now my alignment has too much negative camber at the rear, because my tires are rubbing. So what I need to do is get my rear camber back to the way it was -1.5. Just for info I was running 215/40R17 now Im running 215/45R17

Will installing aftermarket LCA allow me to increase my camber back to the way it was before? Aftermarket LCA are shorter in length than stock correct..., if so doesn't that change the rear width of the car and would make the front wider that the rear? If I install aftermarket rear LCA, would I need to install aftermarket front LCA aswell?

Thanks for taking the time to read my post. :msmile:

On the rear the LCA is not adjustable. What you need is a UPPER control arm/camber adjuster. There are many available, try Junk2, Ingalls, SPC.

The rear LCA's that are available are actually LONGER or the same length, none are shorter. Sounds like you have the wrong offset, I have 225/45/17's and they barely rubbed(trimmed the wheel well).

it was perfectly fine before when I was runing 40 series tires with a 2 inch drop. Guess its a good excuse to buy new set of rims. :mbiggrin:
