Grab a tape measure and calculator....


Radius of tire and wheel OD * sin4 = amount of tilt at the top of the wheel/tire.

Well, you need the overall diameter of the wheel and tire * sin(how many degrees of negative camber you want to run)

You should start a new thread for your fitment questions!

Lol, awwwww PD?!
We can still be friends even though I'm going air!
It's one of those things that makes more sense where I live. I need to be an 1" lower to sit how it should, but I'm already too low to get in and out of a lot of places around town... If I lived in SoCal, I probably could get away with being static.

Do you know where you're putting your leveling sensors yet? I noticed when I was installing my coilovers that if I ever went to bags and e-level the factory air already has those installed so it wouldn't be anything to put it where the factory did.

Not sure if you had factory air or not and knew this.

Lol, I hope it lives up!
I hate this damn box, it's near impossible to move!
Fully loaded its so heavy a 1800lbs lift gate on the back of a 5ton cube truck won't pick it up without help from a jack! And compresses the suspension of said 5ton cube truck by almost 8"!
Thing is a frigging monster...

Excuse the work space, it's a mess right now, too many projects and shuffling stuff around.

Do you have headlight leveling sensors? If so have you thought of a good way to mimic what the factory arm has done in the rear? Hopefully that makes sense.
