Can someone give me a rundown on how to put them in, and will they raise the front end?

 Re: camber tops
what are you having trouble with
just take the struts out
take the strut top off, and replace it with this
will also have to hammer the studs out of the old strut top and put them in these by the looks of it

would probably lower the front if anything, unless you have 1200 strut tops in already

 Re: camber tops
You use 8mm bolts instead of the studs..but that's the easy bit.

Many adjustable strut tops expect you have fitted smaller diameter springs. You may also need to fit a 'half moon' part between the strut top and the spring cup, otherwise they bind up, and might cause something to break.

So it's not all beer and skittles..

 Re: camber tops
they were built for the car, and have been installed before, so I'd assume they will work.
I'm keeping them, its just I need higher springs first (car too low as it is)

 Re: camber tops
just put them in and see if it does actually change the ride height first

you might have to make up spacers and stuff to make it all sit in there properly, and then have the same ride height

 Re: camber tops
I was only gonna put them in to raise it, I can get a bit of neg camber if i want by moving the LCA out, but yeah not too keen to do that
