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? |

I can use a dial indicator for this.
I didn't check the rims but I did check the adapters when I put them on. They ran true. I have moved the car several times (even drove it around the block) to try and settle the suspension but when I came back the passenger rear is always .700" + camber. (Unless I am stopping the rim in the same spot every time I think it will be a good bet the rim is true. (who knows but I will have to check that out first thing tomorrow morning before I change arms.) |
