Help on Rear camber kit for 97 Q45
I have already tried to install SPC & Wicked S14 RUCA to adjust my rear camber but both products were not able to install.
I think it would be possible if I had the Coilovers but OEM type shocks have lower spring seat that gets in the way.
Can anyone advise?

See my post in your for sale thread. When the suspension is loaded, they do not hit. Since you're always driving around with the suspension loaded, you don't have to worry about it. Just put the stock jack or a 2nd jack under the suspension and load it so that you can install it. I haven't had a problem yet. Either that, or just wait and get coilovers.

Thank you for the tip. Now I'm down to two more questions.
1) Would there be a problem if I put the car on the service rack after RUCA installed?
2) Is the RUCA alone good enough to resolve the camber issue?
The reason I'm asking is when I ordered from SPC performance products Part # 67775 came in with two arms for the camber adjustment.

Thanks,
the RUCA is for the camber adjustment. if more negative camber is needed, remove the large locking nut on top. The toe arm is used for the toe adjustment and really needed to lessen tire wear just a little more. when the camber is adjusted in the negative range, you'll see the wheel/rim turning in or out when looking from the rear of the car if toe arms are not adjusted. just eyeball the adjustments so that the wheels are straight and bring it for an alignment. as for the car on a service rack, it'll be fine and will only stop travel of the shock/suspension...but who rolls stock height anyways?

Hey have anyone tried to or attempt to use S13 RUCA on FGY33 rather than S14 RUCA?
Seems like the S13 RUCA have more curves than the S14 RUCA that may clear the strut seat.
What do you think ?

I've thought the same thing and have a feeling it will clear. If you do it and it doesn't hit while unloaded, let us all know! It shouldn't be hard for me to sell mine to the 240 guys for almost what I have in them.
