FS: KMAC Front Camber/Caster Kit

[AudiBoy808]

This kit is brand new I never opened it was going to use it on my 2.8 fwd but I've decided to go CO's instead. So if anyone is looking for a good camber kit for their car here it is.

According to box this kit works on Audi's:

A4, S4, A6, S6, A8, S8 (95 - 05)

VW Passat (97 - 05)

Asking $250 shipped which is what I paid for the kit.

I don't think so none of the guys in our group have any camber issues with their coilovers. So I'm thinking the same will go for me.

K-MAC Patented Camber & Caster kit design replaces upper / inner control arm bushes providing precise single wrench adjustment. Includes bush extraction / insertion tools.

This was taken off KMAC's website and is the exact same kit I'm selling.

I think it's possible to be out of spec up front with camber if your car is too low on the CO's. Not sure.

I have to say false!!!

The lower you drop your car, the more negative camber you will have. Doesn't matter if it's coilovers or lowering springs. You will need a camber correction kit to prevent tire wear.

Toe kills tires - not negative camber.

Toe kills tires - not negative camber.

Toe is the primary tire wear angle in a vehicle's alignment.
Camber will also wear a tire. The Honda boys I used to work with dropped some cars low enough that the outer edge of the tire wasn't even touching the pavement. I aligned their cars to "spec" as far as toe. Even with a "pillow-ball" style upper mount I couldn't get less than -2.0* camber in the front of that car.
They bought tires every other month, go figure.

Yes, your car can be out of spec with lowering your vehicle. It's not as serious as other vehicles b/c we have upper and lower control arms.
Aligning the vehicle is key. It's not that negative camber is bad, it's actually quite good. BUT you need to make sure that camber is equal on both sides. Camber issues can cause a pull/drift as well as make the vehicle feel squirrelly in corners.

I forget the specs on the B5, but IIRC the front camber "stock" for sport suspension "1BE" is -1.0* Camber in the front and -0.7* in the rear.
On a vehicle that has coilovers, or is tracked, autocrossed, etc., but still driven daily, -2.0 to -2.5* camber in the front is normal. I'm not sure about the rears "onemoremile" knows more about racing suspension setup than I do. Ask him.
