Title: RE: ADJUSTABLE CAMBER PINS ON LOWER CONTROL ARMS

The lower pivot points on my stanza have some kind of offset/ecentric adjustment. It is obviously a factory thing, probably to allow for manufacturing tolerances. Whether it would allow for enough adjustment to get neg camber i'm not sure. They seem to be set differently anyway, which would suggest that they should be left unchaged as they may well be compensating for a crooked shell.

Have a look at the front of a Stanza. My old XF Falcon had a similar setup.

    Terry,
    cheers for the reply mate.
    At the moment I have 0 deg camber with my BB struts and standard lower
    control arms. I know 180B arms are slightly longer. Do you think its
    possible to get a degree negative with 180B arms??

    regards
    Justin
