camber plates- need more positive camber

[K4fxd]

I'm running a bit more than -2. on the front. I have no tire wear problems.

Have no experience in this area. I'm used to drag racing and solid Dana 60 rear axles. So I tuen to you, the experienced folks.

-2 is streetable.

fwiw, i can’t vouch for your bubble gauge. It might be accurate or it might be off.

i have an electric angle gauge which uses a bubble for plumb and its off 0.25-0.5 degrees for very small angles like camber angles.

If its close to -2 tho then you’re fine just mind the toe setting is zero or slightly toe in when you get it aligned.

I used my phone and the hoakey bubble gage. There's about a .2 deg diff, not to mention who knows how bad the floor is out and the car is sitting on carpet underpad. I'll find out Thursday. It will be good for a reference. I'll have them set the toe to zero. They seem to use angle instead of fractions of a millimeter now.

Well it was a whole lot of nothing. Had the dealer do the alignment. Without anything the front camber is -1.7/-1.8. Rear was -1.5/-1.7. The toe in the rear was out probably from shifting the cradle around.

That front camber is perfect, especially for the street. That’s a bit much in the rear though. I’d shoot for for closer to -1.1-1.2°.

I’m late to the thread, but there’s no way lowering that little amount there’s your camber off (in) as much as you thought. Glad it worked out.

Kinda stuck with the back. I have the lockouts and the longer non adjustable camber arms. I have them in the rear holes. If I move them to the front I think I will have too much positive. Last year with the stock stuff it was -.7 on one side and -1.1 on the other. I would need adjustable arms to do that. Maybe next year.

Bro…hahaha…did you even read his post? He has the camber arm lock outs. They have two fixed positions; full in or out.

I have the longer BMR billet cam arms and the lock outs. The outer holes on the lock out puts the camber too positive where the tires are out past the wheel opening lip.
