Calibra Camber Adjustment

by Turbotez » Thu Mar 01, 2007 12:34 pm

Hi guys,

Right, ive lowered my cally 60mm and as you can probably guess, the camber is a country mile out. I know you can get camber correction bushes for the rear but what can i do with the front?? Is there anyone out there that does the pillow ball type mounts seen on the likes of drift cars?? Like this pic;

also, i wouldnt mind adjustable rear aswell, as far as im aware, you can only get camber adjustment for rear for up to 30mm lowering??

Any advice will be much appreciated!!! :beer:

I bought the set that they 'did' for the front and returned it as it was very poor quality. Looks like they must of stopped selling it for that reason.

That looks the sort of thing you want !

The way I got around it was to cut the ball joints of the lower suspension arm and pull them in slightly. Sorted the problem out and was a dam sight cheaper!

I haven't installed it on my car yet i got more important thing to do with my head first. I will upload some pics after I have done it. Turbotez, it took a month to receive the item. So the bit of patience is required here.
