Ive been spending a lot more time with my car recently and I just noticed that the camber on the drivers side wheel seemed wrong. A rough plumb line test confirmed it. It slopes the wrong way a tiny

Hi Derek, The most likely thing is worn top link (trunion) bushings, the rubber things. Next is loose or damaged shock mount. Last, maybe something bent on the frame, or bent shock arms. Remote possi

After scratching my head and guessing that the outside wear on my front tires was due to incorrect toe-in I recently bought new tires and rather than wear these out wanted to fix the problem. It turn

I too suffered the heartbreak of excessive positive camber for many years on my BJ8 (though not quite as severe as your affliction). I got a set of nylon/graphite offset bushes from BCS and got as m

Thanks for the prompt answers on camber, given that it appears to be much closer to spec than I thought I will probably buy the offset bushes and go from there. Probably should have mentioned, I thin

During front end rebuild and just for that reason - camber adjustment - I installed an offset poly bushing at the top trunion. Might take a while to set but plenty of adjustment in my case and works

Any sources for the adjustabing poly bushes stateside?, I know Dennis Welch has them and have ordered from England in the past, but for one small item would prefer to buy closer to home. Greg Lemon 5

Norman Nock has them. They are very hard to move and squeek. I would not use them for a performance advantage. The amount of change that can be achieved is not worth the effort. There are other adjus

You probably have the wrong front shocks fitted Greg. Or the wrong Measure the top arm (the shock arm). Assuming the chassis hasn't been changed - the top arm should be around 216mm - 218 mm centre t

I Greg, I think you should look at correcting the underlying problem rather than treating symptoms. 1.5 inches of positive camber is an awful lot!! The first thing to do is measure the distance betwe

I have not seen anyone comment on the fact that the car could have been jacked up or on jack stands and simply lowered to the ground without rolling it forward and/or backwards. This would cause the
