How do you set back the camber on the rear suspension? My near side wheel is touching on the inner body. I refurbished the rear suspension with all new parts. Cheers________________________________________

It's preset with the way the railing arms are machined, as far as i'm aware you can't just adjust it.Could it be a bent stub axle? ________________________________________ Bye bye Sundance Kid |

Thinking about it once it's bent it's knackered. I've got to do mine at some point. Luckily I can press them out at work on a nice big fly press. ________________________________________ Team Diesel |

I suppose you could get the car on level ground then use an inclinometer on the rear brake flange, I think the standard rear beam has one degree of negative camber. If thats right then the only thing that can be bent is the spindle.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies. I sell new and used welding equipment in the Hampshire area.
