So I got some BC Racing coilovers and am waiting to install them until my rear camber arms come in. My question is, is there any benefit of installing the new camber arms before I remove the stock suspension, or if I do it once I take the stock suspension out, or if it’s better if I install them after I install my coilovers and adjust them and everything?

I would install everything at the same time to only have to adjust alignment, etc, once.

Well, that’s what I’m doing but I’m asking what would make it easier to install the rear camber arms. If I do it while the suspension is out or when it’s in?

I would think when it’s out, but I don’t have the car in front of me.
