Front suspension camber adjustment

Recommended Posts

I have replaced the lower balljoint on the nearside of my VR6 - and of course didn't mark the position of the old one .....

 

The camber adjustment seems to be wildly positive on that side (Top out, bottom in). Obviously it needs to be reset accurately, but as a starting point I want to get it a bit more sensible. Is it simply a question of undoing all three bolts on the locking plate, jacking it up and firmly supporting the car, and then manhandling the roadwheel and hub, out at the bottom/in at the top, and then tightening the bolts back up?. If not, what??

 

Best wishes

The bottom ball joint doesn't make a huge amount of difference to the camber - certainly not enough to go positive where it was negative. I'd loosen the three bolts and slide it as far out as it can go and see how it looks. The two bolts on the struts make far more difference.
