All suspensions have camber curves, which is the rate that camber changes through compression. Lowering our cars increases rear camber more than front camber because the rear suspension gains more camber from compression (better camber curve) than the front.

A bent rear shock won't affect camber unless it's from unequal ride height. If you haven't measured the car on flat ground to see if the ride height is equal left to right, you haven't even started troubleshooting what's happening.

What's different up front is that a bent strut will directly change camber without a ride height difference since it's directly bolted to the knuckle without a pivot. That's the reason people are telling you a bent shock won't change rear camber, because it wouldn't change it without other very obvious effects. You'd be looking at roughly 3/4" difference in ride height left to right to have a difference in camber that big. Ride height affects camber, not how straight the rear shock is.

It's also highly unlikely you have a bent rear shock unless you've bent a lot of other parts in the rear suspension too.

I understand the differences between the fromt and rear struts. I was holding them in my hand yesterday. I could see how a bent fromt strut would comprismise more than just camber up front.

But lowering my car excentuated the camber variance in my back end? This is what i first said when i first mentioned it. I understand that.

Also how am i to measure ride height when one tire is angled way in and the other is almost flat. Its decieving..? Kinda hard to measure ride height unless both tires are square.


And you dont need to uhg no me. Im repeating whay you are saying. That strut and spring have "nothing to do with camber" but putting a smaller spring in effects camber? So youre telling me two things man. Dont get mad at me
