      Hey jc70. Let's e-talk before you head to the frame shop!

      Do you know what specs you're shooting for? Did CPP give you any ideas?

      We recommend neg 1/4 degree camber for street use which means the top of the tire is tilted in ever so slightly toward the engine. If the crossmember truly is sagging it probably brought the upper mounts closer together resulting in too much negative camber? One half neg to one deg neg isn't too bad if you're driving aggressively.

      Cool tip of the day to remember camber and caster: CAMber is the tilt of the upper ball joint toward the CAMshaft while CASTer is the fore aft location of the upper ball joint, like CASTing a fishing line.



      The trick will be to know what you are expected to align to and what the shortcoming is. After you get the numbers, hit us up and I can help you find a solution.

      Is the car going to be a daily driver? Pro-tour? Auto-x? Grocery machine?
