Adjusting Camber?

[littlefitzer]

Hi,
Has anyone here every had their Camber adjusted?
I have a 1.4 SX (97) and the car was pulling to the left lately with uneven tyre wear on both sides. So I thought to meslf "I'll go get the trcking done". I went down to the local garage over the weekend and they hooked up all the fancy laser stuff.
Turns out the tracking was not too bad, the problem was that the camber on the front left is way off. Things is though on a Bravo and most modern cars this setting is not adjustable. I was told though that for about 150 Euro they can order in a special bolt (called the magic camber) which when installed does allow the camber to be adjusted correctly.
Has anyone here ever had this done? or even hread about this before?

Thanks,
littlefitzer

I'm not sure about your 1.4 it should do really.

I was under my 1.6 last week and you can def ajust the camber on that.

Hope that helps

How do you adjust it?

Camber Adjust

Thanks for the reply.
So you are saying you CAN adjust the camber on the 1.6, but you CAN't on the 1.4. That souds well dodgy to be. It's not as if they have different suspension set-ups.
Are you sure you mean camber and not the tracking or toe settings? and if so, how do you adjust it?
Thanks again,

Re: Camber Adjust

As said in my first post m8.
You can do it on my 1.6 but on the 1.4 I am not sure as I have never looked underneath one.

How to?

Thanks Rob.
So how did you adjust it on your 1.6 so?

Re: How to?

I didnt adjust it m8,

Like I said I was under the car a couple of days ago and I could see all the parts that needed to be adjusted to adjust the camber

f***ing elaborate a bit will you?

Do you want to elaborate on that a bit?
How do you adjust the camber on a 1.6? seeing as all the "bits are there".

I don't think you can. I'll know this weekend when I change one of the lower arms and a wheel bearing.
