    Super pro isn’t the most bling bling but what I’ve learned is that they make a damn good product. Just got a pitch mount from them, beats buying a beatrush forged piece!

    Nice DIY. I just put on a set of SPCs. My toe was so off after the install that my rear end was wobbling and shimmying the whole ride to the alignment shop.

    Is there zero rear camber adjustment with the stock control arm? Not even a camber bolt?

    • @Autofreakgarage
      @Autofreakgarage  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Nothing. You need aftermarket camber lca’s or camber bolts but I’d recommend lca’s.

    Do you think these coils will allow me to correct my camber back to 0 degrees? I am running -3 degrees “naturally” from Coilovers and I’m not sure which one to get. I’m planning on either these or Cusco. Again my goal with an LCA is to correct my camber back to 0 degrees. Thanks again man.

    • @Autofreakgarage
      @Autofreakgarage  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It all depends on how low you are, but these lca’s can get you back into spec if you aren’t slammed.

    • @Autofreakgarage
      @Autofreakgarage  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Bolts 1,3,4 59ftlbs. Bolt 2 25ftlbs. Although, I would tighten them tighter as I felt these specs weren’t enough for something as important as control arms.

    Not good design. Installed these on my ‘23 WRX today. Cam bolts are poor quality. The cam stops on the arms need to be much thicker to prevent cams from over running. I’ll be taking these off asap and selling. I’m a mechanic with 30+ yrs experience and IMO SuperPro could do better.
