1332, Coil-overs and camber???
Posted by phrenzy, Mar-25-01 08:55 PM
So I understand that when lowering a car, it's a good idea to have the camber and toe-in corrected. So what happens when you have +/-3" of adjustment with coil-overs? Wouldn't that throw the camber all to hell? Are is there some way to compensate for this?

do you mean a 3" drop or 3 degrees of negative camber? either way it would really need to be adjusted.

mines dropped 4" but the camber is only about one extra degree off, sprint and ingalls both make front 3 degree kits for this.

hmm one extra degree isn't bad for racing. Heh I wouldn't race your car though, its too nice.. :P

Perhaps I'll lower it half an inch tommorow
