Damn, I should get one of those. I am sick of my pass. side clunking against the fender. And my front upper ball joints are busted open anyways. Let us know how easy it is to install

Also, how many degrees will it correct?

are these just the ball joints are do they include the upper control arm as well? Its not hard to pop the upper control arm off.

Just undo the cotter pin and nut holding it. Use a tool (various ones out there) to seperate the knuckle and upper control arm. Undo the 2 bolts holding the A-arm mounting points to the car and take everything off.

That's half a kit. What about the rear?
You sure you don't want 1.5/3.0 correction.
Of course I don't know what type a drop you got. I have a feeling the rear tires will get chewed up.

Hurry, we are all waiting!!! If they work good for you, I'll prolly get some since a set of new ball joints would cost about the same. Might as well kill 2 birds w/1 stone right.

Any of you guys want my SPC camber kit? Its for the front only and adjusts up to 3.0 degrees. To hard for me to put on, so I'm going to sell it. It sell for 169.99 on GBC. Make an offer.

does it look to be a pain in the ass to adjust when its on the car? I know that my regular old ingalls was pretty hard to get to since they are kinda shoved up in the corner of the fender. But I think im gonna try these out and sell the ingalls then.
