All camber kits work as long as they are the right ones for the application your buying them for.

the question should be "how long will the e-bay camber kits last?"

E-bay is a place filled with many bargains and many counterfiet parts.

I'm going to say that if you buy a brand name set of camber kits that they will last a long time a no name company is usually also good but they dont have a track record of users to help you make a decision on buying or useing their products.
Hope this helps out on your question YuemMaiMai.

I'll support wheelbroker 100% on that... Stick with a reliable name or do a LOT of research on an off brand product before you buy it...

how about the correct degree/angle of adjustment?
all camber kits dont adjust the same angle, right?
how would i know what i need to adjust, or will the shop just figure all that out for me?

the shop should adjust that as part of an alignment, most camber kits will give you +/- 3 degrees which should be more than enough

if you dropped it 2 inches the adjusted camber then dropped it another inch to 3 then yes your camber would be off again.... however, they say you can safely run +/- 1 degree of camber so as long as it didn't go past that threshold you'd be okay... but most likely yes you would need it adjusted again

alright, then i take it back to the shop for the adjustment, or i do it myself?
and how long does it take for the adjustment of the camber?
