Hey here is my problem. The left rear ride height is about one inch lower than the right( 24 right- 23 left). The rest of the problem is that the left rear wheel is cambered in. I put a level on the right wheel and it is straight vertically but the left is quite pitched in. I have already changed the springs and no change. Could an alignment fix this problem. And before you ask there is no rust in the consoles. can the rear ride height be adjusted, that would fix one problem. I have seen the wedge shape shimes for the rear. Also the top of the left tire is very near the fender and the right has a normal gap. I dont know where to go next. HELP!!!

Hey
2 quick things to check Alignment will make a big difference, as will the place where the shims are installed, make sure everything is tight, not rusted there. On the console, where the big nut is, make sure the hole is not ovalled. The nuts get loose time to time. Good luck Later (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif) |
