Rear Camber adjustment
« on: 04 September 2009, 16:15:10 »

Thanks

Hi
Only toe is adjustable at the rear, however if the toe is wrong the tyres will wear unevenly.  Actually camber can be altered, but only by changing the ride height.

Elite now gone.  Bought an X-Type 4x4.  If there had been an Omega 4x4 I would have bought that instead.  We really liked the Omega, but I wanted 4x4.

The camber on the rear can be adjusted with the tie bar but soak it first in penetrating oil as they will be siezed
this adjusts both the camber and the toe
both sides by the way thney sieze up solid may have to put heat on them if they wont move

Thats how i understand it, but really needs setting correctly at the likes of wheels in motion.
