Hello Folks,
I am trying to solve a problem that the previous restorer may have welded
in.(Mounting Shock mounts in wrong place) Basically one wheel has a 1 degree
positive camber and the other a 1 degree negative camber. I have researched
the archives and it seems that many opinions point to the fact that 0 degree
or even certain amounts of negative camber are OK. Any thoughts?
Can I assume as long as both sides are the same 0 degrees is OK?
I have explored through the archives the number of ways to change the
camber angle including:
1. bending or replacing with different lengths the shock arms
2. Using offset trunion bushings
3. Moving the shock mounting plate into the right place
I'd rather not get into welding or changing or bending shock arms. I can try
the offset bushings.
How about slotting the holes in the shock so that the shock can be moved in or
out?
I realize this is now generally good practice but I have calculated that the
amount of material to remove is small and there would still be good strength.
Any advice?
Many thanks
