Cutting Coils and Camber Bushings

sean9721 · Apr 27, 2009

In a few days once I get my camber bushings, I plan on cutting my coils. My friend says his dad told him that I wont be able to get the camber fixed and that I will have to take out the king pins and heat the up, blah blah blah. Is it true I will have to do this?

Yea I know. Thanks. I'm just wondering about this king pin stuff. My friend keeps on saying that I wont be able to get the camber adjusted correctly even with the adjustable bushings.

Yes sir, listen to him, i got the experience, it was just like hell. Last winter i've buy 3" DJM dream beam, and i installed it 2 weeks ago.

God, it' cool to drive a smooth ride :icon_thumby:

No one has answered my question about king pins. I dont even know what they are.

The king pins won't give you any trouble because you don't have any. You do hawever have ball joints which perform the same function so the alignment issue will remain.

I'm getting the camber bushings to fix the alignment.
