[QUOTE="racer726, post: 1030948, member: 12306"] There is an accentric, and there are slots on both sides. Just turning the accentrics will not get you max neg camber. The knuckle has to be moved in the slots manually on both fore and aft sides, to get there. Easy to get at least 1.5 degrees this way. It naturally wants to droop in the least amount of neg camber position, and there's a lot of slop left. Take it all apart and look at if, and you'll know what I'm talking about. If you want a lot of rear camber, here's what I recommend. Max out both sides, measure, and then for the side that is more neg, loosen the eccentric nut, so there's still some torque on it, bump the assembly towards less neg camber until it's equal, and then re-torque. If you cannot access the nut, remove wheel, loosen somewhat (you have to use judgement here), reinstall wheel and equipment, and bump the wheel to get what you need. If you want even more neg camber, lengthen the slots. Really isn't necessary. Also, if you're running stiffer upper and or lower arm bushings, less camber is required for the same effect, as it will deflect less under load (that camber robbing deflection thing going on) Never mind... Just bring it by my shop, hand over some cash, and I'll get you whatever negative camber setting suits you. :) Cheers, Dave [/QUOTE]
