. But still I don't go out to do skids.. I polish and buff it. And drive it carefully because I can't afford to repair it.

Made my self cry... :'(

Got the toe sorted; front was 0 now 3mm in, back left was 3mm in, back right 1mm in, now 0-0.

Camber next; front is 0-0 rear is -0.4 L, -0.7 R. going to -1.5 front and -1 rear.

Youtube taught me this trick..... get a bucket full of water, clear tubing, tape the tubing to a ruler, suck the water into the tubing to measure the relative height of where the wheels go with the water level, then level them off with hard vynil tiles.

Perfectly level to the mm. A stringline carefully set up to measure toe. A handy tool from Aldi for camber (way cheaper than a camber gauge).

And get a pro to do the job.... :D

I hope you pay that Pro well Mik. That's a fine job indeed.

That's just crazy stuff that I never would've even considered. :laugh:

Cool.

Aaahhhh.. im not that clever as it turn out. >_<

I forgot that when i change camber it will change toe a little, and the adjustable upper arms on the front are well tucked up in there. Impossible to get at.

So jack it up, take the wheel off, adjust, wheel on, back down, measure, back up, wheel off..... etc

Anyway ill get there eventually, at least the rear is easy to get to.

Finally!.... fiddly sht sorted.

Got the front arms all the way in and can only get -1.2 degrees camber. 3mm toe in.

Back is at -0.9 camber. 0 toe.
