Adjustable camber bushes.

Well after having a KMAC camber correction kit in my shed for the past two years i thought it was high time to get it fitted and set the geometry while i was at it. For those thinking about doing this, just remove the whole rear subframe as it will be easier. I decided i wasnt taking it all out and did it in situ and it was a complete mare to get it back together. After getting this lot fitted went on to set up the rest of the car and found the osf wheel to be well out, tried to correct and found it seized solid, £3.50 later with a new track rod end my cali is now all geom'd up and i now only have alot of rear camber as apposed to utter sh*+e loads!

Its only lowered by 35mm but with all the stereo in the boot its more like 45 50 mm. The cambers still not great but theres definatly an improvment.

My fronts have always lasted really well, just the rears that have worn un-evenly.
