4matic rear camber arms

hey guys, I can't seem to find a set of adjustable rear camber arms for my 09 4matic c300 anywhere on eBay. They only make them for rwd. Where can I get a set for a 4matic? Thanks in advance!

For the rear suspension we manufacturea Camber (and extra Toe) adjuster kit.

We do not manufacture rear Camber arms – as difficult to fit, access and adjust. Also to resolve premature inner edge tire wear need to reduce all important clearance top of tire to outer fender. Instead the K-MAC unique patented design is a precise single wrench adjustment system replacing the lower arm inner bushes which allows therefore to move base of tire inwards (or outwards to increase negative camber/track width). Comes with bush extraction tool so the camber bushes can be installed on vehicle.

Extra Toe adjustment is included to compensate for this new Camber facility.

Similar for the front - also providing ongoing Camber and Caster adjustment for the first time (replacing the 4 front highest wearing bushings). Again single wrench adjustable with up to 3 times the adjustment range of the inaccurate/one only single offset position fluted bolts.

Front bushes are 2 axis/self aligning without the OEM oil and air voids. Result is noticeably improved brake and steering response.

Another popular kit manufactured is upgraded performance bushings (12) to replace those on the 6 multi link rear suspension arms. Providing significant improvement to rear end stability. Less flex/twitching, increased traction especially when applying power lane changing/overtaking.

W204 4matic
Front Camber and Caster kit #502616K $480
Rear Camber (and extra Toe) kit #502226K $480
Rear Multi link arm performance bush kit #502628K$480

Delivery $30 one kit or $50 front and rear (average delivery time is 3 to 4 days). We accept Visa, MasterCard or PayPal.

This is out of curiosity but I have a question for you. First is it 4matic compatible, second your site does not say anything about range of adjustment? I'm just trying to see the justification of spending $500+ compared to less then $100. I like the idea of your design but you would really have to convince me it's worth it. Thanks

Yes designed for compatibility with 4matic (We manufacture front Camber and Caster also rear Camber and extra Toe kits to suit virtually every model Mercedes 1968 to 2017 – Sedans, Wagon, SUV and Commercials).

As mentioned, front adjustment for W204 models is up to 3 times that of the inaccurate one only offset position fluted bolt which equates to one degree (and it is precise, accurate adjustment on car under load).

While also manufactured are separate K-MAC front replacement top strut mounts Camber and Caster adjustable for coil spring models these provide up to 3 degrees.

These Strut kits are available in Stage 2 Street/Race or Stage 3 Full Race.

Rear Camber (and Toe) kit provides up to 3 degrees.

Why don't you just use the factory camber and caster kit? That's what I had added to my car and it was MUCH cheaper than what kmac is offering.

Do you happen to have a part# handy? That kit could get my car into alignment better I hope.


My car still pulls to the righty even though the dealership says it is fine.

Yes, I have it at home. Even on a flat road with no crown, car still pulls to the right. I even went into the opposing lane on one road late at night and it still pulled to the right.

Sorry sir. No, they didn't give me that as they offered some financial assistance after the tech lied to me about the results of the first alignment without the bolts.

My work order says

PERFORMED ALIGNMENT. INSTALLED NEW LEFT SIDE CAMBER ADJUSTMENT BOLT. AFTER CAMBER ADJUSTMENT FOUND CASTER REQUIRES ADJUSTMENT. INSTALLED CASTER ADJUSTMENT BOLT. SET ALL ADJUSTMENTS TO SPEC.

Sorry, that's all it says. I can confirm the alignment all checks out. If you'd like I can send you a before/after of my alignment printout.

Ok, please keep in mind our cars (actually all cars) are designed to pull to the right for cars where the steering wheel is on the left and we drive on the right. It's to prevent us from slamming head on to a car driving the other way if we fall asleep at the wheel. The idea is that we end up drifting to the right and then into the shoulder where we hopefully don't die.

That being said, it's a VERY small slight right pull. If you're on the left lane, you should still drift left if not still go leftish-straight. If you're in the middle lane, you should start slowly drifting to the right, and if you're in the right lane, you should absolutely drift right. (this is b/c of the crown of the road).
