What happened to my rear camber?
Hey guys, I just installed koni struts/rce tarmac springs/hvt top hats on my 2013 BRZ. Everything feels great, but I have a discrepancy with the rear camber.
I got an alignment with stock suspension on 8/20/14 as part of my car coming back from the body shop (hit a tire) here are the after results. Pretty good, toe was just slightly off. http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...ECA90042AE.jpg And here are the results from today after installing the new suspension http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/i...737A55FC43.jpg As you can camber is -1.5 on one side and -2.3 on the other. Is this due to an installation error? Or is this level of difference acceptable? I was jumping on the back right control arm to get the strut out, maybe I damaged it? I might switch the rear struts (if thats even possible) to see if that helps. Thanks in advance! Steve |
Hahaha, I just spent five minutes staring at the first picture going, "Huh? It's identical side-for-side," before realizing there was another photo.
Don't you generally need to have things re-aligned any time you make any suspension changes? |
There is some wiggle room in all the components when reinstalling. I'm betting that's where most of your discrepancy is coming from.

Thanks for the replies,
I got 2 alignments in the last 3 days The wiggle room sounds like it may be causing the problem, but the "before" had 1.5/2.5f 1.6/2.3r, So the whole right side of the car had excessive camber and toe. Maybe it just wasn't settled haha. |
