Eibach Sportline springs, tech tip for perfect alignment and no camber kit

[tagappliedfor]

If your already wearing due to negative camber the springs are definately going to increase this, you just need to get it on the alignment rack and see what's up cause there may be a current issue. One degree of negative camber is acceptable but any more than that should be corrected. Obviously plenty of options should you need to go that route, camber kit, camber bolts, LCA relocation kits. Just make sure an experienced alignment technician does the work that way he can show what you need to do.

Should I put the lowering kit and wheels on then go over and get it aligned or figure out what it is before

i guess that's really up to you, if its been wrecked or something to where the struts are slightly bent and they need to be replaced, then your springs will have to come off twice. are you doing the install? it only takes about 45-minutes if you have shop use and a couple hours in the driveway

it will be done in a shop with a lift so it shouldent take me long, and right across from our shop is a place to get it aligned so it will go straight there, if i rotate it 180 before i take it over to get it aligned will that make it closer to alignment?

Yes sir, if all else fails camber bolts are pretty cheap

good thread, i'm glad i searched and read. i'm thinking about going with sportlines too, is that the most popular spring to go with?

No
Most go with the pro kit
It is less of a drop
The sports will be around 2" :0

 

[tagappliedfor]

Pro Kit is more popular, and rides a little better. I would recommend 'Eibach' to anyone though, tried and true and they hold value.

What about the rear camber? does the sportlines knock the rear out of spec?

 

[tagappliedfor]

The rear is a straight axle, there is no camber, but it will sit to the left so you'll need an adjustable panhard bar but that's it.

its advisable to get an adjustable pan hard bar
Lowering will shift the axle
The adjustable pan hard bar will help bring it back (keeps the axle centered)

Great find. I'm installing sportlines in the next few weeks.

I noticed you all are talking about GT's. Will this work for a V6?
