    hey, i got my springs and shocks finally! I was wondering exactly what it was that A.Oster did/used for the back??? I mean as far as helping with the rear camber. I believe it was some washers or nuts that were added??? I got the typical tokico blues/nuespeed race set up and will probably be puttin them on tomorrow. help me por favor!

    <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">The stainless steel ones I got were I think 5/8-3/4 inch with a hole for a 3/8 inch bolt I think, the regular standard size ones anyway. You can put up to six (because they are thinner, about half the thickness of the 3 regular washers) before you will need longer bolts. Take one of the bolts with you if you have to get a longer one so you get the right threads.

    So nothing on the ones left huh? If you can't find them I'll try my dealer here again on the missing ones.
