How to get 6! Degrees! Of! Camber!

Post by ManilaGorilla »

alright, after a while of dicking around and not doing anything with the pics ive been meaning to post up on here about getting more camber out of the t3 lower control arms... ive finally got off of my ass and took actions. anyways, here are the pics and how i got the massive camber without the negative center roll adjuster. i even think i got more camber then you would with a negative roll adjuster. anyways, i'll shut up now. i'll ket the pics do the talking.

-started with measurements
Image

Image

Image




-drilled the holes the same distance as the 2 sway bar holes. this the only way that i think should be to extend the t3 lower control arms since the tension rod prongs tend to twist and wont allow extension. the only other way is drilling the holes bigger.
Image

Image




- the only way i could tighten the nuts
Image




-the after result... the alignment was all thrown out of wack!
Image

Image




-since the the lower control arms extended, so did the tie rods... and only hanging on by 5 threads! scary, i know. but i drifted at the nst event with only 5 threads on. so trust megan tie rods! im living proof that they rule!
Image




-so i mesured, cut them, welded a solid 2" extra rod, then weld on a sleeve for extra strength and made use of all the threads.
Image

Image

Image

Image




-i then threw it on the alignment rack and adjusted the toe from the lower control arms! how many people can say that! :wink: i adjusted and evened out the camber in accordence to the toe. and here is the final result... i hope this helps out.
