My front end guy told me that the cam bolts are not necessary to get the front end aligned right but the bolts would help with a more dead on alignment.
I saw no way of adjusting the camber with the stock setup, granted the amount of negative camber wasn't that much, but it was still more than factory. So how do you adjust for camber without the adjustable bolts?


That I couldnt tell ya because I dont know anything about front end alignment ratios. This is just what the front end guy told me. I should post my print out to show the numbers. Like I said, he told me that it would not be as dead on as it would be with the camb bolts but he said he would get it pretty darn close without them. I looked at the print-out and I think it was like -0.3 on the camber but dont quote me on that. Ill try to post my numbers and let you take a gander at them.

I am also running the FRPP springs with stock struts/shocks. I have no complaints. The ride is almost the same in normal conditions. No need for different bolts or anything, just an alignment. I only have 18's, with 20's the ride might be a bit rougher.

What price did you pay for your FRPP springs?

Well I paid 219 from americanmuscle, but I just did a search and found them here for quite a bit cheaper.

Good luck!

With employee discount, we paid $159 at the dealership but they listed for $225.
