Booked in for Monday.Thanks for the heads up CHILLR. He's wheel alignment price was quite high compared to most places but I'm only after a couple of bushes and maybe a camber kit so I'm happy to pay a couple of bucks for that.

I've got around 5mm of thread left on each stud.

rbjet Skid Machine Donating Members 1,640 Member For: 14y 17d Gender: Male Posted 12/10/12 02:51 AM Share Posted 12/10/12 02:51 AM Well I was just planning on making my own shimms and putting them between the upper control arm mount and the body. Assuming that's where they go.Maybe I should just leave it to the professionals.

Stuff all camber for the street to get good tyre wear and chasing around 3-4 degrees for the odd track day. Stock height.
