Mazdatrix independent camber adjusters

Referring to these:

"Adjustable (ON the car) Rear Camber Links -- really trick pieces - Allows adjusting camber on EACH rear wheel.

These will take out about as much of the negative camber in the rear wheels as is "mechanically" possible. The only way to get more of it out requires a lot of cutting, grinding, and welding.


Left Link 86-01-E015L
Right Link 86-01-E015R"




They came in today but didn't come with any instructions at all so I was just wondering if anyone had any tips or how to install these?

Do they replace the stock camber links or something? Just wanted to know where they hooked in or if anyone had some tips before I do this on Friday.

Any help appreciated.

They replace the stock links. Put them in so that the nipple faces towards the front of the car.

It's right below the description, but the link is kind of hard to see.

These are really good and work great. I have been useing them for a while but what they do not say is that if you use them with hard bushings then they will bind. Stock or poly might be OK because there is some "give" but if you have derlin or something very stiff they won't.

For those that wanted to know how they worked. Put them on tonight, very easy to get on, however the top nut that you tighten down when you're done is hard to get at and takes a very long time because you have to use a wrench (it depends on how much adjustment you do too, though). Adjustment is very easy and works great. You can do it with the car resting on the ground so you can watch it while it adjusts to where you want.
