Eibach align. kit

So i want to get eibach springs (with illuminas) and i was wondering if the eibach align. kit is any good. I couldn't find any threads about it.

They're ok but you might want to put some locktite on em just in case. I personally like Progress and Ingalls bolts better. (Never ever slipped once on me)

The Ingalls bolts for 3 gens are too small. like 10mm threads or something. they don't hold well enough and will slip. just FYI. If you have a 3 gen, drill the bolt holes in the strut and knuckle out to 14mm and use a 4/5 gen camber bolt.

then again, I just enlarged the hole on my strut so there was plenty of play in it.. put some extra flat washers over it that fit very tight against the bolts.. then take it to the alignment shop and have them set camber by loosening the bolts and sliding things around. once the camber is set right, weld the washers onto the strut housing and you're done. shouldn't ever have to adjust camber again.
