LCA for a 2 inch drop?
 
Im purchasing buddy club racing spec coils tomorrow, and I was wondering if I really need new lower control arms or not. Im assuming Ill get 1 or 2 degrees of natural negative camber.

With 1 inch on springs I got 2 degree of natural camber. I would recommend an adjustable lower control arm if you want any say what the camber and tow are.

Hmm, Im on sportlines right now, but i forgot where i was at when I got my alignment.

I was planning on getting the spc lower control arm, but Im just not sure if I really need it immediately. I think the camber would be perfect for me without adjusting it, but the toe would get messed up?

I need LCAs when I get new wheels, but for now this is what it looks like. A little more than a 2 inch drop without LCAs

What it looks like from a distance

Yep! I'm at -2.1* rear with Swift sport springs. A 2" drop will be well over 3* for sure.
