Strut Top Position

Recommended Posts

just a quick one. how far inwards would i have to drill new stud holes for the strut tops to gain 1 degree of negative camber? im sure it was 15mm but could someone confirm. i cant find a topic about it either as i think it was mentioned off hand.....

won't the spring pans foul on the body work with that much different in top mount position?

From what i remember id worked it out at about 15mm, i think... But there would have been issues with clearance.

im not sure there would be an issue with the bottom spring pans, im using bilstein coilovers. but im using a O.E style, modified, rose jointed top mount (mouthful) with no adjustment for caster/camber.

7.5mm for half a degree might be worth a look into, or as much as i can sensibly get away with. thanks all.
