how can i get more negative camber in the rear of my car? an 04 RA. ive moved the entire rear suspension to the max by redrilling and all is there another suspension such as an outlander or evo rear that has a lil more travel?

damn man. have you tried the camber adjustment bolts in the rear? not sure how that's gonna help you if you've already moved the suspension itself and it's not enough

You should watch out with what you are doing. Changing the geomatry of the suspension can actually make or brake whatever you are doing. You may get more negative camber but if the component that you moved doesn't move/function in the lengths/standards that it should you can actually have less suspension response and/or worse cornering ability. So you have only done this to the rear of the car so far? I don't remember exactly what our camber degree is but do not go in excess of -4 degrees. Are you racing the car??? I can ask more whenever you get the chance to answer....

when you say the components won't move anymore, are they just out of the point where they can be adjusted or is something physically in the way preventing you from moving them anymore. if there is nothing in the way, meaning you have moved so far there isn't anywhere else to bolt anything to, maybe you can add some material to make your pieces longer gotta do some major welding for that though.
