camber

[andrewward]

hi, how can I adjust wheel camber on front wheels, very bad tyre wear on right side outer edge ( \- ) and tyre squeeks when turning or braking, thanks

Adjustment is by shims. At the inside of the top A arm there are 2 large bolts. These attach to a bracket on the chassis and between the chassis and the mount are shims you can add.
Realy this needs to be done on a wheel alignment machine to set correctly. Also check the rubber bushes in the upper arm as these do wear out and cause this problem

thanks again greeves, so my next appointment will be to the local wheel alignment shop, hope I will get this sorted out, see how it goes.

p.s. will this job be costly ?

[geeves]

Could be a couple of hours labour at max for the alignment plus any parts. If the bushes are gone its 3 to 4 hours labour

H greeves got my camber fixed as you said needed some shimms adjusted, thanks
