Front Camber Question

Hi all,

I've been doeing searches on this site for a clarification on the FSM concerning adjusting the front Camber. I found conflicting information so I thought I would pose the question:

The FSM tells how you can rotate the strut mounting plate to get additional camber. It proves a chart indicating that you can get 1/2 degree camber 'from standard position' . The question I have is this POSITIVE camber change (not what I want) or NEGATIVE camber change? To be specific, should I move the mark on the plate to position C in the chart, or leave it at 'standard position' to get the maximum Negative camber.

Thanks

Mark

I can't imagine they would make it so you can adjust it to increase camber, doesn't make much sense.

weither it increases or decreases camber will depend which way it's facing now... it might already be in the max neg position.


but to answer, neg.
