Title: Front camber????
Post by: dan7 on 11 January 2009, 15:08

After fitting coilies on my valver, my front wheels look a bit knock-knee! How can I put a small amount of negative camber on the fronts? I don't want silly amounts=tyre wear!!!!

Depends on the coilovers I guess. Mine have a hole at the bottom and a slot at the top, so all you do is push in/pull out to suit your needs. If you're doing it by eye, then loosen the top bolt on the strut and push it as far into the car as poss, then tighten up. Or take it to any competent wheel alignment shop, they usually charge about £30 for camber.

had mine set up on a Laser alignment kit - 2 x camber adjustments and 2 x toe adjustments = £55.  :cool: Sure there will be one near you somewhere :afro:
