    you can install a 84-87 prelude upper control arm which has an adjustable ball joint, or you can buy this camber kit,

    or you could do both, which you may have to in order to get that much camber adjustment.

    I would recommend the Ingall's kits. They are extremely easy to install and require no washers, ball joint separating, etc.

    Yeah, but you have to replace the whole arm if the ball joint fails. With the prelude, you just replace the ball joints (cheaper btw).

    Have you seen many upper ball joints fail? The lowers are the ones that seem to go out. I already have over 200K miles on mine and they are still tight.

    Nope, but it hell feels safer with new ball joints when you lower the car and that joint is subjected to more stress. I don't want to end up crying in my bathtub cause I wrecked my car due to a $30 ball joint.
