View Full Version : Proper alignment with Hotchkis springs

I lowered my Mag with Hotchkis springs and the best my local tire shop could align camber is,

LF -0.1
RF -0.6
LR 0.3
RR -0.7

I believe these are within acceptable range, but more neg camber than I'd like. Didn't think alignment would be so difficult with the (not that low) Hotchkis springs. Shouldn't I be able to get camber closer to normal without a camber kit?

Running into some of the same issues after having a KW version I installed on my Charger SRT8 and am going to get the camber kits installed front and rear same time as I add the Hotchkis to acheive the alignment targets. Maybe that would work for you. Eibach makes them....

Hope this helps.

Thanks Scott.

I'm sure the camber kits will work, but was hoping to align w/out more parts/labor. Hotchkis doesn't drop as much as Eibach and KW (potentially) so thought getting back to camber specs wouldn't be an issue.

Hopefully someone with my setup will chime in.
