    They are links added to the rear suspension on VX2 and later Commo's. Although I think they were omitted on wagons and utes.

    Don't fit them yourself. They are a major pain in the arse.

    Get them fitted professionally..

    I agree they are an absolute pain to fit plus you need to get the angles right so need a wheel alignment after fitting anyway. , but VZ's shouldnt need them. I thought that on the VY series 2 & on, they had corrected the majority of the Rear Wheel Negative camber issues & the wheels look reasonably straight when you look at the rear of any VZ on the road..

    I beg to differ my vz with king spring SSSL in the rear definitely needed the 4 points done

    i bought my ute lowered so i dunno what its got in it, i know its got the FE2 suspension but thats it haha, and yeah id get it done professionally cos id be too scared to #### it up lol, does a normal wheel and tyre centre like bridgestone sell and install camber kits? and if so would it be the easiest way or cheaper to buy one off ebay and then get them to install it?

    Your camber is probably within spec if you have FE2.

    Do you have abnormal tyre wear?
