    DIY: SPC Rear camber kit install

    Tools needed:

    -2 Jack stands
    -10 mm socket
    -17 mm socket
    -tin metal cutter
    -floor jack

    1. Jack up car and place it on jack stands
    2. Remove tire
    3. Using 10 mm socket remove bracket holding ABS line. (see pic)

    4. Remove 17 mm bold holding camber kit to brake assembly/rotor (see pic)

    5. Remove the two remaning 17 mm bolts holding camber kit to frame of car. (see pics and notice blinging ratching and socket...hehehehe)

    6. Adjust new camber kit to roughly the same size as OEM kit. It helps when putting new kit on. You can adjust after the car is back on the ground.


    7. You'll notice when you put the bolt that screws into the brake assembly/rotor it has nothing to lock it in place. The OEM kit has threads on it. The new SPC comes with a brand new 17mm bolt that locks on the end.
    (see pic)


    8. When bolting back on the ABS bracket (10 mm socket) snip off the tab to give it a better fitment. (see pic)

    9. Finished product...(see pic)


    10. Gotta love a nice garage to work in.

    Forgot something.

    You need to take the two nuts and snug them up or your center adjuster will turn causing dammage to the ABS line and the cause some some camber problems.
