Do I order sways and Camber kit?

I want to order the fortune 500's like tomorrow. I would like to order as much stuff as possible at once in order to save, but I have questions on whether I actually need some of the stuff.

I will order the fortune 500s with maximum drop of 2" for my awd sedan. Should I go on and order the camber kit? If so should i order rear only or what? Also I would like sways, but I do not want to grease anything. I think I can't get eibach on the awd sedan either, should I say screw it, or are they that necessary with coilovers?

Camber kit is a must if your lowered more than 1.5". Have it install everything save you $ unless Diy. As for spring Or coilovers, alignment should be done and at least 3 weeks for them to settle. What do u mean do not grease everything?

Definitely get the camber kit front and rear dropped that low. That is what I installed with the Fortune Auto 500s on my AWD sedan.

Sway bars are your choice really. Lots have them here and say they make a big difference in handling. I didn't care so much about handling and kept the stock ones for now and am happy. Aftermarket you sometimes need to grease endlinks if they start making noise, not really that big a deal imo.

The AWD rear sway is pretty small tubiong, might want to at least get the rear one. And agree w/ getting the F&R camber/toe set. They'll pay for themselves in tread wear.

Im RWD but Toe bolts and camber arms should be a requirement when lowering. Camber arms are required, toe bolts are cheap and should be done at the same time.

Get the sways, during the install have them wrap in plumbers tape and grease lightly. Install and then grease heavily. You'll need to grease every year or so most likely but the uptick in handling is well worth it IMO. The Hotchkis come with zerks so it makes it easier.

Camber kits yes. I didn't do toe bolts but it couldn't hurt.

Just to be very clear, is this the kit I should be getting?
Combo Packages 2 Rear Camber Arms w/ Toe Bolts + 2 Front Adjustable A-Arms (Complete set for whole car front and rear) INFINITI G37

If not, can someone please paste a direct link to all the pieces I would need for a camber kit. I would really like to order this today, or tomorrow. Car looks stupid with new wheels and such a huge wheel gap.

That's what you need but before you order I would contact Adam over at Race Consulting Agency and check pricing on them. Can't get the coils from him but the rest you'll be able to get. He's matched or beaten every price I've found every time.

What's with the plumber's tape? I just put mine directly into the bushings.

I picked up my F+R camber kit on eBay from a distributor. Scored a slick deal also - $450 for everything.

Also, I added a G37 Coupe Sport RSB to my AWD sedan and it definitely helped ground the rear a bit.

Does the Coupe Sport RSB require annual greasing? I think I may actually have to delay this. An unexpected cost of 2000 popped up last night, and after buying wheels and tires for this car, and a transmission for a ford Explorer all in Feb, I think I should delay the purchase of the suspension until next month.

What about Spacers? I am thinking the H&R Trak+? Any ones I should consider instead, DRM, or DRS?

So I personally don't grease my sway bars, however my dealer does. I buy my own oil and filter and drop my car at the dealership near my office and they take care of the oil change, lubing sway bars, and a hand wash. All for $25 lol - can't turn that down.

Spacer suggestion - it depends on what size you're using. I use Trak+ DRM spacers and nothing else. I've always used them and haven't used anything else. Just one guys opinion but I know there are a few other members that have used them as well. No complaints at all thus far.
