Dear Listers, I'm looking at making an adjustable rear shackle to be able to adjust the rear tires camber. I believe Kas Kastners book has a picture of an adjustable shackle. I'm talking about the piece that attaches at the end of the spring and bolts to the rear axle trunnion and lower shock mount.
Have any of you done this modification? I believe the Kas detail shows the 2 "eyes" being whacked off of the shackle and a rod end welded onto each side to take it's place. I believe when you screw the rod ends up you will lengthen the overall length of the shackle and it should raise the car by having less camber on the rear wheels. I would be interested in any pictures or experience in doing this mod. Thanks ___________________________ Christopher E. Crisenbery, P.E.
