Everything fit very well. I believe these UCAs will only help with castor. Toe and camber adjustments are done else where..like camber bolts..tie rods. The reason my initial alignment numbers were so bad was because I changed the camber bolts and did not but them back to their original setting. I don't know much about alignment stuff though..I just understand the general concepts.
In regards to fit, everything fit nice and tight. Like I explained above, I had to sand a little paint with 150 grit sandpaper in the balljoint and zerk fitting contact areas..the paint will make the tolerances tighter. Might be able to add heat instead of sanding paint but I didn't want to torch on the pretty UCAs lol.
When I installed the ball joint, I: removed the rubber boot(slides off), sanded contact surface on UCA, pressed in ball joint(rented ball joint press kit from advance auto), installed slip ring, then reinstalled rubber boot. For everything else I followed these instructions. (weird that the link to these instructions are not working anymore on the camburg website..)
