Default looking for good front camber kit

so i was on andysautosport.com and i found a sprint front camber kit, with control arm....so i ordered it, then they email me a couple days later saying that sprint actually discontinued that item, so i'm just wondering if anyone knows anywhere else i can get that front camber kit that comes with the control arm?

I hate andys, I've had nothing but trouble with them. Do you have coilovers? If not, save up a bit and get coilovers with camber plates built in. That will make life alot easier. New control arms isn't what you want.

well cuz the ball joint on the left one is shot, and the one they had on andys looked more modified so my suspension wouldn't bottom out as easy

and no i don't have coilovers, but it is in the budget in the near future to get some

You don't need new arms. The control arms they usually sell online are the upper arms. You need a new ball joint, which is on the lower arm. And I think you need a press to get the balljoint out. That means it's time for a trip to the shop.

Ask him then, he can tell you exactly what you need.
