Front camber bolt & Rubber bushings..

Hey guys.

I wanna get some Front camber bolts,
and rubber bushings, and most probably install them at the same time.

What are the options for yaris Hatchbacks?
How do i know which bushing will work with my yaris?


Thanks in advance.


Harvey

I got some whiteline camber bolts. Only to correct camber back to stock settings for now..
Also if you get aftermarket bushings wouldn't you get a harsher ride and rattle your whole interior to bits.? Its only what i have heard, never had bushings done before.

OEM bushings are rubber .
Are you sure it isn't urethane bushing you're seeking?

Yes, Harm has camber bolts, and much cheaper than the alignment shop hit me up for mine.

The question is not if you should get bushings?

but where would you get bushings from? As there are no bushing kits available for the Yaris.


Do you feel that your doesn't corner very well? what suspension mods do you have?

If you want your car to corner better you start by:

Springs
Tires
Rear Sway bar

If you have all those and you still feel your car is nor cornering weel enough...


Take a look at Tamago's handling thread. Is a sticky on the suspension forum

I got TRD springs ad shocks, Ku36 tires, and Ultraracing rear sway bar.
It does do well, is just that i m thinking whether the bushing will improve even more.


Btw, is it worth it to replace my TRD spring into TANABE DF210?? would that give me lower ride height and stiffer setting?

camber bolts shouldn't cost more than $16 for the pair.

search around.

Ingalls from Summit racing for example.

No you stay with the TRD's. The Tanabe will drop yor car a little more than the TRD's but they are not stiffer.

The TRD shocks and and springs were designed to work together.

You are on the right track with your set up...

unfortunately there are no bushings for the Yaris yet.

You can look into the front camber bolts. Garm sells those or you can probably got them locally also. It's a cheap mod that will help you to dial a little bit of negative camber.

Other than what you have there is not much more to do... other than go to a full coilover set up...

There are a bunch of braces available but you alrady got the rear sway bar and that is the most important...


I say you go out and drive and enjoy your car... it should drive pretty well by now...

True for bolts that set a specific camber. I've never seen adjustable ones for $16/pair.
