I will soon be putting new struts and shocks on my ga and lowering it then all at the same time. So in saying this do I need to get a camber kit and what is in a camber kit? Is a camber kit just 4 camber bolts with washers? Thanks for any help.

I don't know if it'll affect your model GA differently than mine, but I didn't need them, which I didn't discover until after I had bought the new camber bolts.

I have essentialy the set up as your car xxcheiferxx. I didnt need any camber kit, but very sure to take it to an alignment shop, and only a shop that does alignments (DO NOT go to a national chain! :nono: ) and tell them what you did. I have had my car lowered for nearly a year with nary a suspension/alignment problem.

Exactly --- they will whine and say they can't align a car that has been change from factory spec --- I go to Firestone cuz I have a lifetime alignment --- and eventhough they are a National chain -- I just don't tell them -- I just come in and tell them I just changed out my struts and they say ok but the car looks low -- I say worn springs....:lol: :randy:
