    Just itnessed some :censored:ery that I thought this crown would appreciate.

    Pulled into Fastenal to grab a few bolts since they are right next to work. Captastic Honda Civic next to me had 5 point harnesses with the top shoulder strap holes mounted THROUGH THE HEADREST STALKS!

    Seems like the Civic crowd is usually at the forefront of that principle most times.

    If you think about it. If a thief was to just unbolt the shock it would hyper-extend and they wouldn't get the shock out. "WE" know to let the nitrogen out to take the shocks off. So what you need to find is locking schraeder caps.

    So hoping for some help I installed an All-Pro(blems) +2"LT kit and the alignment shop cant get my alignment set properly
    they said the camber is maxed out
    any ideas how to fix this

    it tracks straight but feels like it doesn't want to come back to center (hopefully that makes sense)

    You need to get camber set the same on both sides, that will cause all sorts of fuckery. Also probably want to to get the toe tweaked a little so it's slightly negative on both sides, not nuetral on one and negative on the other.

    Thanks man, I already order 4 I found for the lower bolts and 4 I found for the upper bolt. When they show up, along with everything else I ordered I'll be ripping apart the front end to replace some stuff, and I'll check to see if they match up well

    Good luck. I like to run -.75 for camber, but any slightly negstneg and symmetric number will work.

    Is that full bump? Or will you limit it a little higher?

    Yes
    When you bead roll the panels aren't the panels going to shrink up a bit and you'll loose your pre drilled bolt hole locations ?
