Re: Camber-brace Group Purchase?? (LPDesRoche)
Dave,
Does the camber-brace have to be removed or loosened next time I get
a front end alignment? Is it best to get a alignment done before it is
installed? What about camber settings, mine was set a zero, should I go
negative?
Thanks,

For a daily driver, I'd leave the camber at "0". If you drive aggressivly and do an autocross once or twice a month, then set some negative camber into it, somewhere between .25-.5 degrees. Also bring the toe-in out to 0", if the car is to darty on the street, give it 1/32" toe to calm it down. Go for all the positive caster you can get, 5-7 degrees if possible.
Give me a call if you have any questions.
Thanks,

Dave,
I'd e-mailed you when you had your last GP, I wasn't able to partake due to a deployment. I'm home now and would like to be included, hopefully we can get this up to 10 folks. :D

Basically, it reinforces the upper control arms on a C4 Vette to prevent camber settings from changing while driving.
