help! front camber!

[tomtom-070526]

got a puncture earlier and realised the inner part of the tyre is bald but outside still ok. the front is lowered 40mm on springs (soon to be 60mm) i know this caused it (on both sides), and i understand camber is not adjustable as standard? if i get these ktec camber bolt thingys will this sort it? and can i do this myself if so how? thanks in advance

oh yeah and which bolts do these replace?

Im just ordered some camber correcting bolts from David at K-Tec today, as my valver is dropped -60mm.

You can fit them youself, but the whole point of them is so you can get the camber spot on.

Youll need some place that at least does tracking Id have thought. Mine are getting fitted at Demon Tweeks and put on their 4 wheel laser alignment machine.

how much were they ?

so is camber not something u can do urself without lasers n sh*t? am i right in presuming inner tyre wear is camber and not tracking aye?

Sorry, made a mistake in my previous post. My valver is only lowered -50mm.

When it was on the laser thing at tweeks, my front camber was showing something like -1.2degrees instead of -0.2.

Pretty sure your tyre wear is camber, incorrect tracking shows different signs iirc.

Check out their website for the price,

My RT was lowered 40mm at the front and back. Got my front struts drilled and slotted for about £40. Solved the problem.

Cheers

he means the bolt holes for the shocker to hub mounting point.the slot allows movement so you can adjust the camber.
