camber adjust

[eric huskey 2]

Can you tell by looking if your truck already has a camber kit? I need new tires and wanted to install the camber kit before I get them.



Mine is an 02'

I know it was on my 2005 ST.

usually most people just use washers instead of a camber kit. Camber kits are used for more extreme adjustments. Minor adjustments can be done with adding washers.

Eric (downsouth)- Looking at your ST profile shows you are lowered 2 inches.

Camber Kits were required for proper alignment, when I did my 3 inch drop. (RWD)

I used torsion keys in addition to backing out the bolts. (Torsion Un-twist) LOL
