It's similar to the hub spacer DIY, you take off parts up to your hub and attach them. No disassembling of the rear shocks/springs.

any alignment shop that uses hunter equipment has the shims you need and if you specify during the alignment that you want x.xx camber/caster/toe they can set it up how you want it. that's how it works with lowering...the company should have a card in there with new alignment specs for camber/caster. if the kit didnt come with new specs, it's probably not a very reputable company.

So much misinformation gets posted on here. :: sigh ::

anyways, front adjustable camber bolts for the Yaris:

Thx Cali Yaris ! thats what am searching for, i have ordered longer bolts for my fronts, hopefully it'll be installed in a bout a week or so. just like what you said, am just adding a tad of negative camber.. should be fine for tires, but am just curious about how it'll look later on.

ill update with pics soon.. :)

In the front, make sure the toe in is near zero if you kick in the negative camber. Toe is a big tread life killer.

according to the alignment computer in WesternAuto ( car came with alignment warranty from them) my car needed the bolts mentioned in this thread
this was my car with the stock bolts

after I got the new bolts installed the tires turned out to be straight in the alignment computer.
My concern is how long these new bolts will last :(
Edit: Ignore the date and time on the sheet the time settings are messed in the computer
