An off camber front end? There is nothing wrong, nothing loose, adjusting the toe in makes no difference in the tilted left front wheel. The bottom is out or the top is in. So is it possible to shim

Hi Frank, I am wondering if the lower A- arm has been re-bushed at some time, and done badly so the bottom pin isn't where it should be. Have you checked the distance between the bottom pin and the i

Could the spindle be bent? You can make an adapter and install a shock from an MGB (old racer's trick). When you make the adapter, you can set the camber where ever you want. The MGB front shocks hav

Where the rear shock LINK fits into the body....the hole in the body has probably worn "oval"? Had this happen on my PO'd '74. Makes a hell of a "clonk". Still thinking about the camber problem. Tho

One thing at a time... I can't manage more at my age ;-\ If you remove the rear shock, is the clunk still there?? If not, what can you 'feel' when you manually move the shock lever up and down?? Dav

There is something we need to keep in mind, regarding the steering rack & tie rods: There is a good and logical reason that the steering rack is located where it is, and that the tie rod inner ball

Adjusting the toe should have no effect on the camber. If it did you would have a condition called bump steer, fells like someone is tugging on steering wheel as you go over bumps and the suspension
