well, based on the calculation, the bolt is about 6mm longer than it should be. I haven't put it on yet because I'm still waiting on my G2 paint (Blue). I have enough washers to compensate for the length if it's the case. It should be 3.5 washers. I'm hoping it will fit tight with just 1 or 2 washers.

Will know when time comes.

I apologize for shifting the conversation, but I have seen a few posts about the front camber being worse than the rear after a drop.
After my moderate drop, my rears are much worse than the front.
Does that seem right?

I'm experienced the same as you...but others have told me their fronts are worse off?

My front has more negative camber than my rear. Both my front and rear camber eccentric bolts are maxed out for positive camber. Are your camber adjustments maxed out for the rear?

I can't say 100% sure, I'm just going by what one shop told me.
(BTW, I am really disappointed at the skill level of the techs. at my local Firestone. Sheared off a bolt from rear suspension)
Anyway, they told me they had it as far as they could get it and it was still wayyy out, by several degrees in the rear and a few less in the front. Needless to say, I'm going to take it elsewhere from now on.
