Alignment/coilover questions
I was wondering what the proper route was to make camber adjustments once the car is dropped via coilovers. The coilovers I'll be getting(most likely auto fortune) will have adjustable pillow top mounts in the front which i think allow for camber adjustment. What would be the best way to adjust camber and anything else needing correction after a drop(1.25")? I know the rear Agency power, perrin others make adjustable lower control arms and some other companies make those bolts which i still dont know how they work but also adjust camber. I think it'll be a good help for me and for others in the near future if we could establish the best way to correct/adjust car geometry after a drop, given that the car has no oem adjustment. thank!! :thanks:

If you want more complete control. Camber plates up front should give you enough to adjust. Rear control arms are your best choice for a 1.25" drop. The bolts only allow very minor adjustments in camber.

Coilovers with adjustable top hats (pretty much any coil over ever) and Cisco or AP rear lower control arms

Thanks for the confirmation, its just what i had in mind.

I'm getting Whiteline hats in the front and camber bolts front and back.

Here is my setup and what i did hope it helps.

I've been reading that when camber is increased so is toe-in in this car. How to adjust the toe in the car, do the bottom adjustable control arm contribute to this or only camber. I want to make sure when i drop the car that everything that's off set could be adjusted and since it seems nothing is adjustable in this car. Thanks!

Thanks for the clarification schtebie.. i wasn't really talking about any specific location as i don't really know in details which side is affected but just wanted to see if anyone knew what to do to correct toe when dropping since it isn't adjustable, wherever it would be necessary front or rear.
