Default Clarification on Camber Parts

Hey guys,

I'm looking to get parts for my alignment and I'm somewhat confused on what I need to get from Megan Racing. I need to adjust my front and rear camber, as well as my rear toe.

From the Megan Racing website, these are the parts I believe I will need:

MRS-LX-0323 (Front Upper Arms for front camber adjustment)
MRS-LX-0314 (Rear Upper Arms for rear camber adjustment)
MRS-LX-0372 (Rear Toe Arms for rear toe adjustment)

I'm assuming that I don't really need the rear lower control arm as long as my adjustments are only minor? +/- 1 degree? Thanks for any clarification!

Car comes stock with -1 to -1.5 degree camber in the rear. If you need more than that then you need the rear control arms.

So there is a "rear upper front arm" and a "rear upper rear arm". Do I really need both or will the rear upper front arm be fine to adjust the rear camber?

The front camber arms look like a wishbone figure to me. Part number is MRS-LX-0373.

Thanks Jlin!

What you have there is correct, you only need the upper arms for front and rear.
