WJD634 · #1 21-02-2008, 10:03 PM

hi guys, i know there are many threads on the camber kit topic but after searching for 2 days, yeah a lil sad 2 days, i have not found any pics on how a 4 way camber kit is fitted.

It would be very much appreciated if anyone could get under there car with a camera and take a few photos from various angles to show me how they are exactly fitted. Thanks WJD634

Most people get them installed as there is alot of work involved. I know another magazine street* commodores had a DIY tech on their site.

Hey matie, took these this arvo. Could only get under the drivers side without burning myself on the exhaust...

Hope it helps mate, big job thats for sure. My machanic still reminds me about it.

What brand camber kit you got?

these are the ones i'm thinking of purchasing.

IRS CASTER/CAMBER TOE IN KIT FOR VP-VZ COMMODORES - eBay, Other Car Parts, Accessories, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 26-Feb-08 22:06:59 AEDST)

my mates dad is a mechanic and can fit them all i need is a cheap kit, will this do the job?

yeah mate seems like the GO.. I got the 4point Kmac kit.... but like it says on ebay, make you get an allignment at the same time.... or 1 at the time and anoter a week later.

It makes sure that once the camber kit settles in that doesnt change the alignement

I made that mistake and ruined a good 18inch tyre.

Did the pics help?

For $200 i could get those cheaper ones installed but no warrantly. Instead i went higher for the Noltec kit with some warranty.

Has anyone got pix of them on the front ???

You know' it wouldn't hurt you to thank rch-13z for going to the trouble of providing the photos you wanted.

hey rch-13z thankyou so much for the pics and the suggestions, will do what you said, sorry i couldn't get to thankyou earlier, i've been out of town. Thanks again exactly what i wanted and needed.

you know how they come in a set of four? is that one for each wheel, or do you have to put two on the back? i'm going with super low king springs but just couldn't see how two would fit in the back. Thanks in advance =)

rch-13z · #13 25-02-2008, 12:25 PM

Na thats fine mate, just glad I could help out.

In regards to the camber kit having 4... Im not sure if they are made for the front.... I know some ppl have problems with front end camber.... but your kit mentions IRS for commodores which only effects the rear... May be a question for the seller.

Camber kit should do a world of difference. Mine has straightened out a fair bit but still has a slight camber... Blardy IRS rears...
