Rear camber help 1980
Anyone on this forum live in the Columbus,OH area ? near Pickerington..
I'm a first timer here w/1980 L48 doing some rear suspension work and would love some help setting the rear camber (new Van-Steel adjt. struts) good enough to get her 3-miles or so to an allignment shop.
Not looking for someone to do the work...just tech/moral support ( I will supply the adult beverages
) so if your feeling freindly and have some time, hit me up. Looking to do this in the next couple of weeks.

If you want to set it up right on the money, you can e-mail me for my "Rear Camber Setup" paper.

Toe-in is always set last.
Camber changes affect ride height.
Ride height changes affect toe-in and camber.
Never string to the front wheels.

Okay. Good to know. I was dialing in my ride height and just had a shop do mine this weekend. Didn't mess with it myself since it wasn't too far off. Just saw the article and thought it might be helpful.
