websites...just do a search for "scion tc camber links" in google. with a drop like yours your going to need them for handling and tire wear. the fronts of our cars dont have the same camber problems but the rears do.

heres one place i found...

first of all. you dont need new struts if you have coilovers.

Second, just take your car to an alignment shop and have them align your rear camber back to spec. might as well align everything else while youre at it. the rears are already adjustable. you dont need to spend money on the camber links.

Ditto. Just b/c your camber is out of wack... doesn't mean you need a camber kit. It means you need an alignment.

www.trdsparks.com
and
www.mcgeorgeparts.com
have the rear camber links for $169.
depending on how slammed you are, you might not be able to get it realigned straight
