Just worried of possible things that can go wrong during installation....
From the pics on Schwings fotki and McPhills, it doesnt look TOOOO difficult but then again, they are experienced and me, not so much.

Nope..+ Kmac adjustment tips....>>
Here's some tips on Kmac adjustment from the FAQ:
Note: Only with a full Kmac set is Toe easily adjustable. Drops of over 1" should install a full set.
1) Install Kmacs and set to neutral (centered or stock equivalent setting)
2) Adjust Camber with the lower KMAC to desired setting (I like -1.6). You'll be pulling the bottom of the wheel IN here. If you need more adjustment use the top Kmacs to push the wheel OUT at the top.
3) once Camber is set, proceed to toe adjustment.
4)Rotate BOTH top and bottom Kmacs Equally to pull both the top and bottom of the wheel either In or Out to achieve Spec.
5) Double check Camber and tweek if necessary.

Gotcha, thanks for cleaning that up.. Ill be tackling the install myself with >
Everyones fotki for help and guidance...
I know everything i have to do because ive studied all of the pictures just worried bout everyting aligning correctly so its safe to drive for a few days then get aligned.
For just a strictly street driven car, is it necessary for corner balancing?
