For any of you who've bought a set of camber arms but haven't
installed them because you've learned online or you've been told
that you need to drop the diff. Worry no more.
Last night I installed my camber arms without unbolting anything.
PASSENGER SIDE
1. Remove the upper camber arm bolt as much as you can with an
18mm socket/ratchet and then using an 18mm ratcheting wrench
2. Unless you're able to get the bolt stuck up against the diff, use vise grips
Let them hang, hold on to them, or jam it up against something
3. Take a grinder and grind one side of the flat washer on the bolt down til it's flat
This is what it should look like
With the new arms it's a lot easier to just slip the bolt right in
DRIVER SIDE
The driver side was a little more tricky and I managed to remove the
bolt without dropping the exhaust but I suggest you remove the catback
to make the job easier on yourself.
Grind down one side just like the passenger side bolt
Take 2 long flat heads to pry the bolt in a good location
I used an impact gun and some extensions with the 18mm on the end of it
to let the bolt unscrew itself out while my friend pry'ed the bolt down for me.
This photo already has the new camber arm in it but I wanted to illustrate what I did to pull it out.
and you're done!
Here's some more images of my personal install
Took out the adjusters for more low
Installed 20mm spacers in the front and rear and added a nice amount of camber
