Front end camber

[olly-r]

I race a 05 182 but its not a cup chassis, i want more front end camber, cup arms any wider track? or shall i just elongate my lower arm ball joints?
Any other racers here?
Cheers

How much camber do you have now and why do you want more?

You can get camber bolts if you don't have them already. Some shocks also have elongated holes to allow camber adjustment.

Just with you mentioning the cup chassis

Do you mean camber or caster?

Camber = adjustable bolts, around £25
Caster = cup chassis wishbones £60 each I think

Edited to add

I may be picking you up wrong

Yeah i know fella but really want to kick the bottom of the wheel out to get a touch wider track as will help with stability , what's the differance between cup arms and non cup?

Only difference is cup arms have extra caster, it sits the wheel further forward in the arch.

I don't have any idea about a wide track conversions

The cups wider track is caused by lower ET of the Turini wheels

@NorthloopCup's roll centre hubs give about 5mm extra track which in turn could give you more camber. That's my thinking..I'm sure some one with more knowledge will confirm this. How much camber are you looking for ?

Yeah this is correct. They give you 5mm per wheel, so 10mm overall.

And you should get away with a bit less camber with the RC hubs as well.
