Banski camber rods installed |
Subject: Banski camber rods installed by oilcan on 2012/9/19 2:48:54 took me a couple hours on sunday to install these. not a tough installation at all. original part notes: turns out one was BENT?!?! stock camber rod on the passenger side. the rubber stock bushings were cracking and small chunks were missing. Also some aluminum was being shaved off of the bracket on the wheel side ( Part name? ). dunno how hard it is to bend one of these but it dosnt seem like it was gentle process! Banski part notes: this truly is a beautiful product! clean installation i also purchased the dust boots. when installed correctly they will work great. Banski Installation notes: basically all went smooth except 3 things. First, the instructions were perfect except ( unless i missed it ) you cant figure out from the pic or instructions which side (front or back) to install the different sized spacers. my apologies if its in there and i missed it. second i had to file down some aluminum and then the "spacers" so they would fit properly on the wheel side. no big deal just took some time and then tapped them into place Third, and most disappointing was that no matter what i did i could not get the dust boots to work on the wheel side nuckle. the bolts wouldnt go thru correctly..i seriously spent well over an hour on the first side... i even got so desperate as to try modifying the boot and cutting on the side (this after the bolt cut through it and ruined it any way). i jsut couldn't make it happen, very frustrating. all this being said... WOO HOOO!! im super happy with the product and the new handling characteristics!!! im sure all of this frustration could have been solved with a call but i couldnt keep my car up on the stands till monday so i was forced to suck it up. WOuld i buy this product again...... Actually i cant wait to buy all the rest the Banski products so HECK YESSSS!!!! any one with dust boots, how did you do it? |
