 I've had no issues with my adjustable brackets but I have poly bushings.=
=C2=A0 I don't know what effect that has but I would think poly would be le=
ss tolerant of any misalignment.=C2=A0 The car tracks straight as an arrow.

Hi All,
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 I=E2=80=99m now trying to adjust the camber on the rear =
wheels of my TR6.=C2=A0 After changing out he bushings I=E2=80=99m finding =
that the drivers side is within spec, but the passenger side is 3/1/2 degre=
es negative reinstalled the original trailing arm brackets in the original =
configuration. I had installed adjustable trailing arm brackets about 10 ye=
ars ago, but when I inspected them this spring the bushings were really des=
troyed. I=E2=80=99m not sure that the damage was due to crappy bushings or =
that the adjustable brackets were causing a problem. Although the stock bra=
ckets are simple, figuring out how to configure the brackets to get the cam=
ber right is much more difficult than adjusting the adjustable brackets. Ha=
s anyone who has installed adjustable trailing arm brackets had a similar e=
xperience?
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Best,
