Camber Kit?

[white_def]

My MK3 is lowered (1.5") and it's on negative camber.

I was just wondering if they have any camber kit for the mk3s.

I did see one kit for the mk3s. it was called A1 Camber kit on horsepowerfreaks.com but don't know if any mk3 owner has ever had them on.

I dont' know any shop that can do camber alignments in Wisconsin, especially on a lowered car.

just wondering if anyone know how to fix the negative camber problems.

Thanx,
JOE

No shop's can adjust camber in the entire state?

Uhh... look around for better shops.
Here is how Camber is adjusted.

Also this is A1's site, you can find adjustable camber rods, etc.

Unlike some cars, our cars have a fully adjustable suspension geometry. Any reputable suspension shop can adjust our suspension.

The cars they are telling you that they can't adjust are cars with McPherson struts. This is the reason people need camber kits for them. They probably saw your car was an import and naturally assumed it was McPherson strut based.

Ok, I'm a newb when it comes to adjusting camber... What exactly do you do with those two bolts pictured to adjust the camber?

 

[Dirgle]

Those bolts have degrees markings on them. You can dial in the amount of chamber you want by rotatin them. They are basically elliptical rods. As they rotate clock-wise and counter clock-wise the pivot point for the lower A-arm changes.

oh boy.
you need an alignment machine, you can't just start turning bolts.

wait a minute...i am wrong? you can adjust camber yourself? theres adjustment numbers on there?

 

[Dirgle]

I wouldn't adjust it yourself. There is a reason people don't do it them self's. screw it up and the car is unsafe. You may be able to dial in degree. But the best way to get the accuracy required to to just go to a shop.

However here is the chart for it.

True, I will only align my car on an alignment rack, remember when you start turning bolts you could not only be changing Camber, but Caster and Toe too.
But if you are lowered that much and the camber is drastically off, you can do a quick align by eye to get the wheel straight.

If your car is to low you can't use the stock camber bolt. You will need to buy the camber kit. My car is lowered on KYB-GR2's and Eibach springs and SEAR's was able to align my tires.
