Camber

Post by Flog_TSC »

Right then so lowered the caddy sits on stance plus coilovers
New lower arms and top mounts also my passenger wheel looks like it has camber and more than the drivers side got one of the lads at work to do the tracking and as u can’t do the camber I’m a bit stuck as to what it could be

Bent shock ??
Bent hub ??
Inner rack arm ??

I’m lost and it’s doing my head in when I fitted the top mounts I did notice the shock (that was brand new ) was a lot slower than the other one for up and down movement could this be the issue ??

Had a similar issue when I lowered mine (Eibach springs -40mm) but it wasn't enough camber to affect anything noticeably and I put it down to the subframe not being perfectly centred. When I fitted an aluminium subframe I also installed a deadset kit and that has pulled the camber in as near as damn it equal. Might be worth trying similar before spending loads on adjustable and new parts??
