Hello all,
I found instructions from Elephant Racing on how to install rack bump steer kit but even they do not mention whether to put the front wheels on ramps or use jack stands and let the wheels drop and hang. So far, I have the front wheels on ramps; I loosened the steering shaft u-joint and was able to get one collar in place and the bolt threaded on the passenger side but cannot get the bolt threaded on the drivers side. Any other tips or suggestions? This is turning out to be much more difficult than I anticipated! Thanks! |

if it was me personally, I'd leave it as is. The toe is the most critical to tire wear and yours is within spec. The camber is a bit more negative than spec but that's probably from lowering the car. Unless you have adjustable front camber plates you may not be able to get the F camber in spec.
R camber you can fix with shims. But it's still not too bad |
