So my front tyres are getting killed by my ride height as there is a significant amount of camber which means the inside of the tyre is wearing away fast.
I was wondering who has put one of these kits on their falcon and how much does it cost?

from my expirience you shouldnt need a kit as there should be enough thread on the existing bolts . Just add shims to get your required setting .Any good alighnment place should do this for you withought trying to sting ya with a camber kit. cheers mick. |

I needed new upper arm bushes 2 months ago. A camber kit with nolathane bushes from Repco cost less than 2 bushes from Ford, I think it was $120 or $160 all up, ie both sides. But yeah if you can just shim the existing brackets you'll be laughing.
