Fixing Rear Camber on a Lowered FC...
I lowered my FC by about 1.5” in the rear and, as expected, the rear camber is all messed up.
I roughly measured my rear camber (with a tape measure and trigonometry) as -5° and some say it could be as high as -10°.
I have heard that the adjustable links from Mazdatrix; only claim 2.5° of camber compensation. Is this correct?
If so: What do I do about the rest of the camber?
Thanks,
-Jason

Don't lower the car that much...duh.
Unless you want to major reconstruction to the rear suspension system, there is no way to lower the car that much.
Why do you need the car that low in the first place?
Are you building a race car?
Or you still driving on the street?
If this is a street car, it's a nuisance and dangerous to be driving such a low car - it damages the roads and damages your car.
It might be a big bragging right to have such a low vehicle, but you're endangering yourself and others by doing so...
