2 interesting article on how to check camber and toe in (tracking) diy style.
maybe need a boat level and protractor, won't be 100% but not far off.

Nope, the mecahinacl type cost a fair bit, a trip to our lazer alligners is £30 measurement and tracking adjusted if needs be.

what method are you using to check the camber, can it be done with simple tools?

i'll have a go of at it when i get home in a few mins

have to do a 200 mile drive this evening so the pressure is on:look:

Im suprised your tyre is rubbing on full lock, mine never has - well appart from when the tracking was about 20mm out and the car barely driveable!!

5-10mm of movement is LOADS, just as an example my camber was about 2deg negative before (waaay too much) and now its at 1.45 I believe, also adjusted the Castor almost back to std and its 'lightened' the steering no end and have better turn in and wheel return. If you do HIGH mileages or your roads are bad DONT go for the TAS mounts, they are very solid indeed and you feel every bump!

i think i have mine too straight so the tyre is going under the wheel on hard bends at high speed and the tyre is rubbing off the suspension tie on the front at full lock.

the camber is adjusted full out. i think i might readjust it to half then readjust the tracking for that then see what ive got. theres only like about 5 or 10 mill of adjustment anyways.

I'll take a look when home but Im running Spax coilovers lowered approx 60mm. Before with the 'fixed' camber it was running at nearly 2degrees and tyres were wearing quite badly. I recently bought some TAS adjustable topmounts for £120 from TAS and they took some setting up but ive now brought the camber and castor back and it handles waaay better than before although the topmounts are a little noisy over bumps as they are solid billet alu!

i have FK coilovers. There is camber adjustment on the front:thumbs:

corsa's have fixed camber...meaning it cant be adjusted.....unless youget a cmaber kit form sumwer like regal.....or H&R....Or TAS Motorsport:wave:

a camber kit will cost you anything from bout 80quid +:thumbs:

IN the haynes its something daft like 1degree 45' fixed.

Does anyone know what angle the camber should be on a 94 Corsa B.

Fecking coilovers have me head melted trying to set them up.
