Do not use the rebound adjuster allen key to hold the shaft in place.
That's exactly what I was asking, so thank you for the response! I'm trying to figure out whether I need to do something like this:



By the time I buy the tools I need for that, I am 1/3 of the way to the cost of an install by a shop, so I may just have them do it (I already need them to do a corner balancing and alignment anyway).

While @Racecomp Engineering is here, can you say whether the Tarmac 2s will prevent me from getting to 0 toe? Right now I'm not too concerned about a lot of negative camber, but I don't want my toe to be off. The shop recommended an SPC LCA but if the only benefit in getting that done now is camber, I may wait to do that.

Thanks.
