INDY510 Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 It's not going to fix a HUGE problem ... .. .. . but I would suggest flipping the camber plates up-side down compared to where they are now ..... it's very minor,,,,, but you added a little of the worng caster ,,, ,, , where flipping them would add the right caster Also..... do you have a bearing underneath the camber plates??? ,,,, ,, inbetween the springs and camber plates???

thisismatt Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 These are still just prototypes, problem solving and figuring out what will work best when i make the final ones. I havent measured degrees yet but they give me about an inch of total adjustment at the top of the tire It doesn't look like you have any articulation (spherical bearing or rubber bushing) in your top hats. Your strut inserts need to be able to articulate at this mount...you're going to destroy them rigid mounting them like this. Quote Link to comment
spudly13 Posted March 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Yes, there is a bearing underneath the camber plates, i have new suspension in the mail so ill be sure to flip those plates around when i have it apart! Thanks for the input! Quote Link to comment

Thanks for the input! Maybe for steering angle change, but what about side to side, front to back swing which occurs when the strut goes through compression & droop? The strut needs to be able to swing, hinged at the top hat... Quote Link to comment

thisismatt Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Yeah...you'll notice on the ones from groundcontrol, technotoytuning, tein, etc...they have a spherical ball for that articulation Quote Link to comment
