Title: suspension setup (again)
Post by: tigers_gonads on 16 April 2015, 17:19:28

Okay, went down to the van over Easter and came back last Thursday with no problems.
Just worked the last 7 days and not even looked at the omega so thought it would be best if I fired it up  :y

Car starts first time so had a walk around (as you do) and noticed the front passenger wheel's camber is well out.
With the wheels straight forwards, the top is toeing in significantly. The drivers side looks okay.

Now going from memory because I can't find the setup sheet  ::) both wheels had a very slight leaning to the right. I thought this may have been to counteract the camber on a road but something's definitely moved  :(

Any ideas where to look please ?

I'm off to work now so will answer any posts at stupid o'clock in morning when I get back  ::)

Tia  :)

Camber bolts, shock body to knuckle.

If in doubt, acquire the off recommended socket set, and fit the 13mm socket between the rim (not the tyre) and shock, the re tighten the bolts.
