Stinker Lowering kit

thats spuds on a qc, you dotn have to notch them on a qc witht he springs he had, on the rcs its different from truck to truck, I usually notch them at the time of replacement , that way we dont ahve to remove the upper control arm again,

all you do is mark where the bolts are now, either with a scrib or some shoot paint on them to keep there present location

remove the upper control arm

with a die grinder, elongate the upper slot for more movement about .250 , then reinstall and take to alignment shop , then they should have enough movement to align if the xtra room is needed
 
towards the outside, what happens is the tire tilts inward, grindin out a bit towards the fender lets them move the upper control arm out, thus top of tire out, camber back in place, you want it about 0 camber , unless your chubby size then go a bit on the plus side, but they seem to like 0 camber and we usually pull them back a couple on caster to make them not so jumpy
