Rear Camber Kit

MBworld-ers...
I am trying to get a hold of the guy who makes the rear camber adjustment arms for my w208 and no reply. Is he still doing them. I think it was speedybenz and his name is Jeff. Holla-back...I was going with K-mac, but heard and read his stuff is excellent and cheaper.

He is still around.....you got his name right too. I just ordered my kit from him to ship yesterday.

Here is the email that I got from him last week. I understand he is quite busy and makes each kit upon order.

I cannot wait!!!!

"I can send you a set of Camber Arms this coming Monday, if you like. Cost is $260 shipped and paypal is good for me. Account is: Kimdac@aol.com.

Thanks

I just sent him the funds via paypal. I hope he gets it out soon, I am tired of buying new tires every 8K miles.

rear camber kit

Jeff is a good guy. Just need to be patient. You won't be disappointed with his product!

Note: Just make sure you tell the alignment shop that you have adjustable camber arms in the rears, otherwise they will most likely not touch the rear.

I will post my results ASAP.

I can imagine the tire loss...but did you not get any crazy rear-end?
My rear-end is all over the place. Funny, I can see a big slant in my rear tires, the bottom is about 1.5" out further then the top!

Man, I hope this kit does the trick!!!!!

Ya, the alignment machine says that my rear tires are out by almost by 1.5 and thus reads 2.4 right and 2.5 left. I need to bring that back to 1.5 and 1.5 respectively so I still get good cornering and tire wear.

Let us know how this works out for you and any tips when we take ours to the shop
