Gonna do the camber arms yourself?

Have fun with the passenger side by the gas tank lol. Those small torx bits are the stupidest thing I've ever seen put there. Use the lift at work, MUCH easier.

Toe are easy unless the bolts are seized and you have to cut them off like I did :(

Doing this today or what?

i dont know whats different on the mazda 3 but the tech at work had old camber arm off within 5-10min at most. what sucked for customer though the spc adjustable arms he bought on ebay didnt fit his 07 focus. it was rubbing up against the shock.

i think i might leave arms to sunday or something? dont feel like being on floor. il just insulate instead maybe.

also my obx exhaust manifold and flex pipe arrived at my parents house in florida. sometime after 1st jan when they get back need to install it. want more power. not looking forward to doing that either. atleast i know all the bolts/nuts arent seized. Old parts only been on the engine for 1 year.

Rear suspension is identical 00->11.

Should have fit fine, or he had the wrong arms.
