Title: Camber
Post by: JonnyF on March 18, 2012, 09:07:13 pm
I had my wheel alignment done yesterday and the front camber is a bit out, on the left side its 0.32' and the right is 1.24'. I think that 0.6 degrees is the standard camber as my leon cupra is lowered 30mm it should be a little more. Is there movement in the subframe to fix it and is there 'tools' to center it?

On the right rear the hubscentric bolt has seized and is 0.16' toe in. It was 0.25' before they tried aligning it and as its seized it will probably go back there. Are the bushes available on their own or is it a new arm or else polybushes?

Caster is 8.31' left 8.55' right, is that normal for a lowered car?
