Rear. Measurements are differences across the 18" wheels from plumb.
Passenger side I have .700" + camber. Sticks out at the top. No shims left to remove. Driver side I have .230" - camber with 2 small shims installed. I can put more shims in the DS to bring it to 0 but how do I remove material to get the PS down to 0? The car was rotisserie restored but the suspension points appeared good and were not touched. (Doesn't mean the car was "right" before I bought it) What am I missing here? |

It might be a lot of work but you might try to remove both rear arms and put a straight rod through the ears and try to compare the two sides to see if the ears are off or it's the arm thats bent. If the rods you use are long enough it will be easy to see a difference between the sides. You can change the outside ear hole some to raise the hole to get it closer.
