Do you need to take the wheel off to adjust the front camber using the eccentric?

You could try and access it with the wheel turned but Ive never tried it that way and the chances are you still cant. Honestly though, just take off the wheel. It should take you 30 extra seconds. BTW the ecentric bolt is the top bolt in case you werent aware.

They don't take your wheels off on an alignment rack right?

You don't IF you can get under the car, on a ramp or a lift. In your garage on jack stands, you really do have to take of the wheel.

It will be on an alignment rack. I got an alignment 2 days ago and the guy said he couldent do front camber so its off in the front, im going to bring it back and have him equal it out using the eccentric in the front. The car drives straight with almost 1 degree of camber difference in the front. Hopefully when its equal the car dosent track to the sides

Although mitsu says it is -1 or -2, it's never exactly that. When measured, it's usually like -1.5 and - 1.7.

So don't expect them to be exactly the same. Just make sure the both arrows are pointed in the right direction (either towards engine, or towards wheel) and let them do their best.

Will the 1 degree of camber make the car track differently or just improve the handling?

crazybaldhead

On the 1 degree camber setting, the bolt will actually be between -.8 and -1.1. And not necessarily equal on both sides.

Cornering will be worse, but very marginally so. Unless you are on an autocross course, i doubt you'll notice. Your tires will last longer at this setting as well.

Not a very good alignment shop IMO...

This is the alignment now, if i tell him to put say -1.5 on both sides in the front will the car still track straight if i took my hand off the wheel for a couple seconds?, assume the rear is the way it is now and mathin toe up front

.10 of rear toe-out on both sides? Yowza.

deadstockkpomp

I think my car is to low to zero out the toe in the rear so he set it equal

deadstockkpomp

What should i tell this guy to do with the camber adjustment? And does anyone know how the car will track with almost equal camber in the front and rear? Im not to good with this stuff still learning

deadstockkpomp

This is how the bolts are set. I dont get it are they not the same? You think the camber plates are off a little on the coilover? All i did was tighten them so they dont come lose.
