i have an 05 ls and i bought the eibach sportlines...where can i get a camber kit to get them installed? any help would be great

 

Any alignment/Tire shop should be able to install it for you

 

You dont need them you need what the alignment guys call, "Crash bolts" or "Eccentric Bolts".
Any good alignment shop will have them for about 10 to 15 per bolt.

I only put one bolt per side and kept one stock bolt per side. I have camber adjustment from the positive side of stock to up to 2.2 degrees negitive camber.

Your stock bolts shoud allow enough adjustment fora stock alignment, replace the bolts if youre wanting to do something specific like autocross. I run 2.0 neg camber for autocross and back it off to 1.2 for daily driving.

 

im just gonna lower my car myself and get it aligned at a shop...including the camber kit put on

 

No, no, no. FE1 suspension (what your car has) has zero camber adjustability. And you can't get a cam bolt to fit. The only thing adjustable on your car is the toe via the steering tie rods.

I have Eibach.

I bought the cam bolts in advance in case I needed them.

I put the springs on myself (and wrote a how-to on it).

I had it aligned afterward at the dealership. There is nothing to adjust.

The only way you can change camber would be cut bigger holes into your struts and strut towers allowing some movement of the bolts. And you don't need or want to do that.

Please try a search before making a new thread. There are LOTS of threads on this topic. Like this GREAT BIG STICKY thread right in the suspension forum:

https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/suspension-67/bump-stop-cutting-alignments-camber-kits-lowering-springs-53340/

 

Halfcent, when we had the stock lower strut bolts in, youre right there wasnt much adjustment but there is some about .3 degrees.

I can get the bolt size tommrow at work, we didnt have to round out the holes we used just the upper of the two lower strut bolts, left the lower bolt stock. I'll have the pic as soon as i get the wheel off for this weekends autocoss to get me back to 2.0 neg.

Castor is only adjustable by rounding out the upper strut mount bolts front to back, aggreed not that you need to do that.

 

Here a picture of the bolt, 2 needed, and the GM Part Number.

 

^^^^^^^^^^Agreed^^^^^^^^^^^^save your money,No camber kit installed with my Sportlines

 

Eibach makes a camber kit. Go to www.tirerack.com IT is about $50

 

To reitterate, you only need a camber bolts if,

A) If the stock bolts won't allow for a sock alignment, or
B) If you want a specific Alignment setup with adjustability.

eibach's camber kit is the same thing, bolts, thats it.

You can see the cam bolt in the top hole, and the stock bolt in the lower hole. No rounding of the holes were nedded, they were snug and a little grese on the cam made them slide right in.

 

I had an alignment after i put my tenzo's put on. I was charged an additional 18$ to adjust the camber on the passenger side. Is this what they did?

 

Camber is adjustable, at least GM Service Information thinks so.

Front Camber Adjustment
Loosen both strut to knuckle nuts just enough to allow for movement.

If the strut has not been modified previously, perform the following steps before continuing with the wheel alignment:
2.1. Disconnect the strut from the knuckle. Refer to Strut Assembly Replacement .

2.2. File the lower hole until the groove of the stamped ring around the hole.

2.3. Connect the strut to the knuckle. Refer to Strut Assembly Replacement .

Adjust the camber to specification by moving the top of the wheel in or out. Refer to Wheel Alignment Specifications .

You would only need a "camber kit" if you wanted to change camber for competition, like BLKTRX said.

Read that again. It says you have to remove metal. You have to make the hole bigger. That's what I'm talking about. You can't adjust these struts UNLESS you cut holes. Which means, you don't have to adjust them unless you bent something.

 

The point I am trying to make is the camber IS adjustable. Yes, you should not need to make the adjustment under normal circumstances, but lowering a car can and does change suspension angles possibly requiring a camber adjustment. The Pro springs might not need alignment, but some of the other springs that lower the car more might need alignment. Adjusting camber is also needed to get the best handling for auto-cross or road racing.

I got a alignment kit I bought from PTuning.com.

I didn't use it. Did my own alignment, and yeah still was dead on.

I'll sell you mine if you still want it $30 shipped.

 

i was thinkin you couldnt adjust the camber. and halfcent knows his stuff so i would listen to him.

 

Why does it seem whenever I post it gets confrontational? I don't doubt halfcent "knows his stuff", in fact I believe he is one of the most knowledgeable people on this forum. Does that mean I know nothing? I think 8 years as a GM technician (and 22 years before that as a body tech for other makes) would qualify me to post information out of the GM service manual and maybe have people believe me? I am wrong about a lot of things, but I try to not post if I am wrong about something. Cobalt camber can be adjusted if the need arises using GM recommended procedures. Sorry if I stepped on anyones toes, and sorry about the rant.

Trump's call for a protest crackdown has been a boon for Chinese propaganda
Analysis by CNN's James Griffiths
Protesters running amok. Innocent citizens under siege. Outside actors engaging in terrorist acts. Police struggling to maintain control and in desperate need of reinforcements.

That was how Chinese state media portrayed anti-government protests in Hong Kong last year, dismissing calls for greater democracy and an investigation into police brutality by focusing on individual acts of violence and property damage.

Throughout the protests, the US was consistent in its support of people’s right to take to the streets and have their voice heard. Facing widespread unrest and public anger at home in the wake of the death of George Floyd, the reaction from US President Donald Trump appeared markedly different.

On Monday, Trump called for the military to be deployed to “dominate” protesters, and demanded states do more to stem “acts of domestic terror.”

The irony has not been lost on Beijing, which on Thursday marks (or rather doesn’t, the date is highly censored) its own military crackdown on anti-government protesters on June 4, 1989.

“Washington’s promise of equality and justice for all in the country has remained hollow at best,” state news agency Xinhua said in a commentary titled “The coming suffocation of the American dream.”

“Amid the ongoing anti-racism protests in the country, decision-makers in Washington, instead of trying to sooth the pain and anger of the public, have been fanning the flames, calling protesters ‘THUGS,’ and threatening them with ‘the most vicious dogs, and most ominous weapons,” the commentary said.

China Daily, a state-backed newspaper, noted that “The US, after the killing of Floyd, seems to be on fire, and troops have been mobilized to subdue angry demonstrators.”

“This is certainly not what the world expects to see in a country that is the world’s sole superpower,” it added. “But that sadly is the reality of the US.”

This rhetoric isn’t just embarrassing for Washington, it’s also a sign of how the US may find its influence damaged by a perceived hypocrisy over human rights at home and abroad.

Earlier today, Hong Kong’s leader Carrie Lam pointed to the unrest in the US as evidence of Washington’s “double standards.”

“They attach great importance to the national security of their country, but look at our national security through tinted spectacles, especially the current situation in Hong Kong,” she added.

The ability of Washington to influence Beijing’s position on Hong Kong – which is in part founded on fear of outside influence in the city – was already severely limited. The Trump administration’s reaction to protests at home may have hurt its position even further.
