home made rear camber plates?
I was thinking of making rear camber plates..I could fabricate some plates out of 1/4 inch aluminum..So what do you guys think of this idea? Is it possible on an fc3s?

Camber plates will not work in the rear of an FC. The position / angle of the shocks do not effect the camber. Camber is adjusted by the angle of the subframe and/or the trailing arms.
Just buy one of these:

Nope. That's the center link.
You can buy seperate, independant links that work on either wheel, allowing for individual adjustment- Also on racingbeat.com
Has anyone noticed any adverse effect from using the links?? I'm wondering if it wouln't cause some driveline vibration??
For a driveshaft to have no oscillation, both end shafts need to be parallel to each other.... the camber link works by tilting up the subframe... that changes the angle of the input shaft to the rear diff....
Anyone ever experience probs?
Edit- Hmm.. can't seem to find them.. I couldl have sworn I've seen induvidual ones...

There are companies that sell the individual "dog bone" links that adjust each trailing arm separately. From what I understand you can't take out much camber (giving less camber) with these short links, they are more designed to give more camber which FC's usually don't need.
I run 2 seasons with the single center link and never had problems with the driveshaft or rear end.
