Lowered Vehicles Poll... (not on trds) - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I know I shouldn't make a new thread but I just needed to grab your attention asap.

I was wondering how many people got their alignments done and needed camber bolts because the camber was off. I found out today my camber is Negative (LF -1.3 and RF -1.8).

Respond under or in the Poll or both. THANKS!

i know people have said that you dont need to but i got the eibach alignment kit anyways. it was only $20
but it can only be done on the front

I used to have S tech on my car, I remembered after I got my alignment done, it is 0.5 degree off in the front. The alignment guy said I could get away with no camber bolt if I don't want to buy them, he did warn me i will have uneven tire wear. After a month, I decided to switch back to TRD coz I was scraping every single bump in town. I checked my tires after the switch, the 0.5 degree off camber from the S tech did give me uneven worn out on the front tires. I am on TRD now, so I don't need to worry anymore.

This thread is a bit confusing....title says "not on TRD's" but yet two of the choices deal with TRD's...

I thought that was weird too, even the choices seem strange.

sorry i was dozing off when i made the thread. i was just wondering how many people that lowered their cars actually have the camber bolts. my camber is off by .5 (did the alignment check myself) on the front right side and is within range on the left side.

As has been discussed before, the TRD Eibach drops don't really need them unless you may be racing & need the camber. For street use you should be okay. I could see using them for H/S-Tech springs if needed.
