Camber

Camber and caster adjustment is possible with adjusters available in 0°30', 1°, and 1°30' increments. One adjuster is used to adjust both caster and camber, depending on orientation.
1. Measure vehicle camber and caster. Note the difference between actual measurement and required specifications.
2. If adjustment is needed, determine amount of camber and caster in adjuster installed in the vehicle.
3. The degree of camber and caster are stamped on top of the production adjuster. For the right side of vehicle, the first number is the amount of caster and the second number is the amount of camber, Fig. 3. For the left side of vehicle the numbers are opposite.
