camber...

[landslideATX]

does anyone know how to set the stock camber? i'm trying to get an alignment and they won't due it till i replace the left tie rod's and upper strut mounts. the upper strut mount on the left side is brand new. they said it had a lot of play in it. i didn't think at the time, but its cause i have the sw20 kyb agx's up front so they are smaller and i don't have the strut tube spacers on it. i got the tie rod and i know how to fix the toe i just don't know how to fix the camber. i have neg camber on the left side and a bit of pos on the right side. let me know if anyone knows. i checked the haynes man and it gave me a small section telling me to go to a specialist. lol. thanks.

are you running camber plates?

if not, you can't adjust camber. the only way you're camber would be off would be your lower control arms possibly being bent or some sort of chassis related damage: i.e. cross member being compromised, upper strut hat being damaged and no longer keeping the strut in place, etc...

so then how do alignment places change the camber to correct alignment?

they shouldn't have to on ALL cars unless there's damage.

our cars aren't equipped with camber adjustments from the factory. other cars are.
