| eeeeeeeeevil. | Camber issue as i previously posted i hit a kerb and bent a few things... had the new parts fitted which were a new wishbone, balljoint and tracking arm. the only problem is the camber is off now so its running on the edge of the tyre, nothing else looked bent and i'm not sure how i can check it all. i done a search on camber adjustment and seemingly this cant be done? i'm a bit stuck for ideas.

| Re: Camber issue you need to get a full 4 way alignment check , to determine exactly what is bent i suspect from looking at your pictures that the shock adsorber and/or knuckle are bent , it took quite a hit to fold the wishbone up that far

| Briskodian | Re: Camber issue A trip to Chathams, or to save some money Star Performance seem to be your two alternatives - plenty scope for adjustment - but that final statement only applies if nothing else is bent. If you park on the level and view the car from the front - wheels straight ahead, you should be able to see if one side has too much -ve camber and the other none or slightly +ve camber - this will not sort anything but at least you will see what the problem is. Also check the toe - should look parallel or slightly toe out - but in any case as ric04vrs said "you need a full four wheel alignment done". |
