Rear camber mod

[vec 160]

Has anyone ever done the rear camber mod of drilling the outer trailing arm mounting point and if so, did it work ok

how you are going to fixate after this mod the trailing arms position?

The rear camber mod is achieved by moving the hole down by 20mm which reduces the camber on the rear wheels when you drop the height by approx 40mm. Welding plates over the original holes will keep the strength in the bracket.
This is a mod that was done by somebody called ben copeland years ago. I just wanted to know if anybody had done it and if there were any drawbacks

I have searched through the net and have found a post on it but without the pictures. I am going to do it anyway in a few weeks when i get round to changing the shocks and springs
