[Shotimes] Moog Caster/Camber Kit # K8822 ?'s

[Ron Porter]

I don't have the Moog, but I was able to get a decent front alignment with
my Koni/Eibach setup. I obviously cut the welds with my nifty Eastwood
spotweld cutter. IIRC (and the spec sheet from the alignment is here
somewhere), I'm running about a  -1.5 degrees camber on both fronts with the
struts pulled all the way out. The car handles well, and I now have about 5k
on the (almost new) tires, and I'm seeing no inner-tire wear (note to self:
time for a rotation).

I'm gonna be ordering a bunch of suspension stuff for my car in advance of
my
changing out to a Koni/Intrax set of struts. I was wondering if anyone has
any
input on the Moog Kit for the front suspension? I know camber becomes an
issue
when lowering a car, and I know it is already an issue on my car as the
towers
have been cut and (get this) rivited into place. I am already seeing a
little
inner edge wear, but not really bad and it is about time for me to rotate
the
tires anyway.

So my question is this, does the Moog Kit offer lots of adjustability so
that
I can hopefully get the caster and camber to where I want it, not just in
the
"specs" as most alignment places will do? I'm pretty much finishing up the
suspension in the car. All ready have the SFC's, SFB's, STB's, I have my
24&26mm sways ready, full TPR for the rear bushings with new moog TPR links,
I
need tie rod outers (gonna go the moog greasable ones) & (waiting till I do
the rest of the suspension), and moog steel front sway links. I'm gonna be
doing the GM tublar control arms in the back so I'm not so worried about
adjustment in the rear.

So anyone have the moog caster camber kit in the front or have any
experience
with it? I'd love to know.

Thanks
