5th gen front camber solution

Post by secla » Sat Oct 13, 2012 10:13 pm

What are my options for front camber adjustment on a 5th gen ? I cant find any full upper a arms with adjustable balljoints like most other hondas. Are they available or are there any other options ?

Those look like they'd fit a 4th, not a 5th :?

I've got 2 of these ball joint adjusters in pretty much brand new condition, they have been fitted and covered 1 mile max.

Same as these http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem ... 8923933834

Let me know if your interested. Thanks pete
