[Ali 556]

Hi,

I Just bought Some Used HKS Hipermax Performer Coilovers For My S14....They Are ok....:ugh:

But One The Camber Plates On The Front Is Blown/Worn out (I can not Describe it)...

So I went to my friend how own a EVO/STI Shop And He Said That I Need New Camber plates And Install Them On The Coilovers....

My Qustion Is :

Are HKS Camber plates Universal...(Can i Get any HKS CP And Just Remove The Old Ones And Install The New one's....?

Some Pix For The Heak Of it...

yes you can change them out for different ones.. but how do you know the camber plates are " Blown" ? is it because the bearing in the middle is loose? If it is, that bearing in the middle is replaceable. My bearing went out after a few k miles.. i found the size and found it online and ended up buying one for like $6 lol

NICE !!!

Yes The Bearing Is Losse And The CP Is playing Around....So I Just Take it Apart And Take The Bearing And Go To Bearing Shop And Get New one's....:bigok:

You need to press the bearing out, sometimes they are held in by snap rings, and measure it with a set of calipers (the measuring kind, not the brake kind). Once you have the measurements go to bakerprecision.com and find a spherical bearing that matches your specs. Bakerprecision is awesome, they even have a guide to help you select the correct bearing for your application.

Update,

Took the front strut apart ti find out the HKS Are usuing Werd Sized Bearing's...Outer diameter is 30mm an Inner dimeter(the on the main top bolt go threw) is 16mm...

And to my bad luck ALL-REPET-ALL bearing shop's around don't have these sizes...

Only 15mm OR 17mm..

I'll look into racpar1 site and will do an update....

Thanks every one,

Ali
