    Shimming spindle/lower ball joint for more camber?

    Question to the experts. Stock suspension with Hellwig sway bar street cruiser. Front height to wheel well opening is 25 1/4ish, rear 25 3/4ish. 235/45/17 ft 255/45/17 rear. What would be my ideal setting? I was thinking -.5 camber / +4 caster / .27 toe in.( 1/16 )

    Shimming spindle/lower ball joint for more camber?

    I can definitely confirm shims give you lots of negative camber but I think .156 shim’s (2 of .078) were too much. And no offset bushings. I will take one .078 out and add off set bushings. Thanks for all the input guys, I’d be lost without you all !

    Back to the drawing board! Ok so I shimmed the lower ball joints with .156 bushing. So now we got -1.1 camber and 2.4 + caster and when I try turning down the camber to -.5 , + caster goes lower. Also after we were done and we did a caster sweep + caster went even lower. Didn’t even know that...

    Unfortunately I’m in Florida. The kid at discount tire was great he just got a little overwhelmed. He let me go by my specs and I sat there with him and when his tools couldn’t get to the adjustment bolts he used my long extension with my 3/4 swivel. He worked on it for over an hour but had...

    That should be perfect because I’m running 235/45/17s in the ft. Which is around 25.3. So that’s what I needed, .29 will work out great.

    So I finally went to alignment shop today and they were confused on the 1/16 total toe in. I’m supposed to go back next week. So MV8 said 0.277 deg. Total toe in and the 2013 Dart specs are +0.10 total toe which is closer to 1/16. I think one of the guys stayed 1/16 he thought was around +0.17...

    Tie rods differences swaps etc.

    Is the 9/16 head larger than the 11/16 or is that an illusion?
