Not for a few weeks. Order it from summit they have fair pricing. They have helped me with performance oarts in the past so if I dont have items I like sending people their way

[/IMG][/IMG]I been having problems with getting my tahoe aligned, I'm currently out of adjustment. I'm looking into which camber kit/part number to order. Also will flipping my uca effect the camber at all? My current set up is 2002 tahoe ls 4x4, 2500 keys with 2" belltech spindles and street performer shocks with z71 bumpstops. Sitting at 31.75 with 305/40/22

hey i just noticed your swaybar end links are those energy suspension? if so are they the ones that are on the rack at the parts store or for your truck? i used the ones on the shelf thinking they looked right but compared to the factory ones the middle section is longer than stock making your swaybar positioned higher. it made a difference in the handling of the truck. fyi

Yes I got them at auto zone. I just measured the length I needed and got the closest to make everything sit level. Btw just got done with the a arm flip and camber kit tonight. Everything went great. Waiting for my pitman arm then pray it will align now, very pleased with the ball joint angle now.

I put on spindles last weekend and the shop that I went to for an alignment can't get the camber right. I want to install 2" drop keys, but first I want to find out how to get the alignment correctable before I go lower. I'm very anxious to hear how your alignment goes once you get the camber kit done. You went with the Belltech 4957 camber kit, right?

Belltech Camber Kit Details

My alignment shop sent me looking for adjustable upper control arms to help out with my negative camber. A company by the name of SPC makes bushings for the upper control arms that provide an adjustable -1.25 or +1.25 camber adjustment. The problem with them is that you have to press them out and press them back in to set the amount of camber gain/loss.

Since this thread pointed out the existence of the Belltech 4957 kit I had to find out more about it, so I call them directly to get the skinny. It turns out their 4957 kit is actually two kits combined into one:

Belltech 4951 - Adjustable cam lock plates. These can be adjusted to provide between 0 and +1 degree of camber.

Belltech 4955 - Left and right front bushings. These provide ONLY a non-adjustable 2+ degrees of camber once installed.

I think that the bushings alone should give me enough adjustment with the 2+ camber. But I'm going to purchase the 4957 just in case I need the extra +1 degree of lock plate adjustment in the future.
