I decided not to install my them myself and just let Subaru do it when they did my alignment... They figured an hour, maybe two since they would already have to adjust them.

7 HOURS to get those in. Not even kidding. They only charged me half, but those things are a bitch for only +/- .75* camber adjustment.

And this was their good tech guy too. It sounded like an absolute horror. The service guide for removing the upper control arm is 5 hours alone.

So - moral of the story here is if you need rear camber adjustment, just spend the $300 on good adjustable LCA's.

Oh, also - my alignment turned out fantastic.
-1.5 Camber in the front (With only factory top hats and bolts)
-2.2 camber in the rear
0 toe all around.
How low did you go btw? And wheels and tire specs. I'm doing the same and only ordered LCAs, wanna be sure it'll be enough. Thanks in advance
