[Shotimes] Front End Negative Camber Issues

[Zach Leahy]

One thing I ran into trying to get camber correct was that my upper strut
mounts needed to be replaced. I had a custom STB that allowed for smooth
adjustments of the camber, but I was still unable to get into the acceptable
range. The answer was that I replaced the upper strut mounts and I was
easily able to gain the alignment I wanted.
 It seems after 200,000 miles they had been pounded into an angle that was
not able to be adjusted out, ansd you could see it on the old mounts.
