I've been looking around for something for the front, the rear camber bolt is fairly innocuous, and frankly, not a major concern for me at the moment, my rear camber is back to around what I want it to be via Ford's revised rear upper control arm.  However, I'd like to gain this adjustability in the front, I saw the SPC kit on FocusSport and was wondering if anyone had anything to say about it?  It's 40 bucks cheaper than the kit on newedgeperformance's site.  I just don't want to get junk.

Its a good product, but not great.  You have full adjustiblity of camber from +1 degree to -1 degree change.  However, its tied to caster.  So if you wanted only +0.5 degrees, you'll change your caster drasticlly.  Not earth shattering, but it will change the steering feel.

The only issue I had with mine is actually with my struts.  I used to change them at the track.  At the track, I'd dial in -3 degrees.  For the street, I'd use -1 degrees.  But the constant loosening and tightening the strut nut cause the hex head on the top of my sturts to strip. 

But thats not an issue if you are setting and forgetting.
