|Subj: Adjustable camber on midgets
------------------------------------------------------------------
I had my midget in the alignment/tire balance shop a few weeks ago
and the technician pointed out that the camber figures were out of spec.
>From driving on roads in this area and hitting some huge pot holes, I
wasn't surprised. As we all know (well most of us anyway), it's not
real easy to adjust camber on midgets, on B's too I suppose. I started
looking around and found some adjustable shock arms to correct camber.
One place I saw wanted ~$100 a piece for uprated shocks with the
adjustable end link. I also saw a place advertised in Hemmings that was
selling the arms for ~$35 a piece.
My camber isn't real far out of spec., but far enough that I know in
a few years (months) it will probably be way out from the roads. Does
anyone have experience with these adjustable arms. Thetheory sounds
real good. I just put rebuilt shocks on the front, so I'd hate to spend
another $200 for the new shocks with the arms. How hard would it be to
put a new arm on armstrong shocks?
Thanks,
Dean
