Upper control arm bushings?
Which way to install K7103 if not as per instructions?
The exact reverse of what it says on the sheet, and what is indciated i think on the bushings
What you want is the narrow side of bush pointing directly inwards at the front arm hole, and the narrow side of the bush directly outwards at the back.
The aim is to get the front of the upper A arm as far away from the car centreline as possible, and the back A arm hole as close to the car centre line as possible.
Then you adjust the front cam bolt so that the fat washer side is in towards centre of car
adjust rear cam bolt so that the fat washer side is OUT.
Then adjust only the rear one to stand the wheel upright, or set to your chsoen camber setting (suggest a small negative setting)... depends on how much you like corners... :)
if you think of the A arms as the wings on a plane you have a more swept back wing.... the balljoint now aligns with a window further back in ecconomy class....
This moves upper ball joint back in relation to lower balljoint.
and thus means if you drew a straight line through the centre of the upper balljoint stud down and through the center of the lower balljoint stud it would now hit the floor further ahead of the tyre contact patch than it did before... hence stronger steering self correction when you let go of the steering wheel.... summed up as more castor.
shopping cart.. wheel axle is on a j bracket wheel sits behind swivel point and so does its contact patch with the ground. we achive the same here by leaning our swivel back from totally vertical. so the wheels contact patch is behind the centre of rotation of the swivel set up by the stub axle between the balljoints
sorry wrote far too much, you asked a simple question and i went off on one....i'm bored at work, and its way too hot to go for a walk.... :)
