Does anyone have any install pics of installing adjustable camber bushings? I bought 3.5 degree adjustable camber bushings for my 97, and before i dive into it, I wanted to maybe see a couple pics before I do it. Any thing hard about taking out the stock bushings? just wanna make sure I'm ready for anything :)

Nevermind, I installed my 3.5 degree bushings this evening, and I must say, its alot easier than i thought it would be :) Just loosen the bolt on the side, spray the stock bushing with PB Blaster, and with some channel locks yank the stock bushing out. Then tap the new bushing in and tighten the side bolt up. Now I just need to take it to an alignment shop to dial it in, but i saved some $$$ installing them myself

yea i wouldnt think it would be too hard. i did mine when i lowered my truck. so idk how long it would take doing only them. and my brother erased all pics of the lowering documentation. (:annoyed:)

I went to get my truck aligned yesterday, and he had to adjust the bushings all the way out (3.5 degree bushings) and my caster and camber was all out of wack...but now she steers straight an tracks down the road waaayyy better, im happy....84 bucks well spent

since you got the adjustable bushings, you can go to the Tech Library & learn how to do an alignment yourself...it's pretty easy after you do it the first time. Then, any time you decide to modify the suspension, you'll be able to align it yourself in less than an hour:headbang:

Yea it took the guy that aligned it about 3 hours to get it dialed in, he test drove it like 10 times...glad i got gas before i went, but what i really wish i had was some dream beams, but im to damn poor...:sad:
