Use white lithium grease, not WD-40. WD-40 is not actually a lubricant and doesn't last very long.

I used wd40 just to get by for now..before, I just rinsed it with water and it'll last acouple of days until the squeeks came back..

My friend had his g2 integra dropped w/ neuspeed race springs, a progress camber kit, 17" enkei showguns and had no problems with rubbing. With you wanting a 2" drop a camber kit is highly recommended from me. Had a guy I know w/ a 00' celica dropped about 2" since he bought it and his tires were gone at 3,800 miles with no camber kit, under normal driving.

people that spray their camber kits...you do spray with the kits on the car? or do you take them apart?

im sqeaks like crazy...especially on hotter days or after the car is warm. i notice there is little noise on rainy days.

ive been using white lithium grease...i just raise my car and spray. doesnt seem to work too good.

For the sake of argument, wouldn't the Skunk2 replacement arm have to be longer than the OEM arm to allow for positive adjustment? If so, wouldn't it hit the fender/tower/whatever if you're really low too? Here's a cheesy drawing I made to illustrate my point:



Oh, and to those who have the squeaking problems with the Ingalls kit, here's the solution:
