reading this thread your mods sound a bit dodgy, buy the proper camber ajustment kit, it's only £130 + fitting | |

alright, you can adjust it by filing the hole, fair enuff, but I meant theres no adjustment like there is with the tracking... | |

NOPE you can EASILY adjust the camber by elongating the top hole where the bottom of the damper bolts to the hub. You must ONLY elongate the top hole, a file should do it and ive been told that even Vauxhall recomend this method. Once youve elongated it you slide the damper over into the fresh section youve filed out and bolt it up tight. | |

ok will do, mat try new wishbone bushes also, a mechanic friend sugested these may cause a problem. Why are the adjustable top mounts not suitable for road use? | |

Nah you shouldnt need adjustable top mounts (they are not suitable for daily road anyhow) Something is definatley wrong, i'd say toe isnt set right but if youve had it all checked :boggle: Castor isnt adjustable so one would assume its set correct, but if its had a bump it may have been knocked out? Take it to a place that can do a proper toe,castor and camber check. | |

My tyres are wearing very badly on the inside. Well just the near side actually. Tracking is spot on had it checked. It had a bump about 6 months ago on this side, inner wing snd wing had to be replaced. Could something be bent suspension wise or is it just i need top adjustable mounts to sort this all out. |
