- my commiserations to the driver who rolled his herald i found an article many years ago that enables you to get lots or heaps of negative camber without resorting to soft worn out springs. this comes

- This sounds almost too simple; what a neat idea! Derek, were there packing pieces on both sides? U.S.-spec. Heralds usually had such a piece, but only on the LHS of the car. --Andy * * * * * * * * *

- This is an interesting thread...(at least to me)...I'm not familiar with the Herald rear springs...are they similar to GT-6? Would the idea of reversing a leaf work for the GT-6????? Any thoughts????

- It depends on which year GT-6. They all have the transverse leaf, but the rotoflex suspension is supposed to cure the jacking problem. I haven't tried reversing the leaf, but maybe I will soon. Chee

- Thanks for the response...my cars are all rotoflex...but that isn't cure-all...I'd like to develop ideas on this proposal...I have ordered a negative camber spring from the UK, but if reversing a lea

- Peter, the only real cure for the different behaviour anomalies the GT6 Mk2/3 rotoflex suspension have is to go for the design with the pneumatic bellows suspension and solid transverse girder. It gi

- My Herald had a single packing on the LHS of the car that I left in when I rebuilt the front end and changed from drum to disk brakes. What is the purpose for this packing only being on one side and

- Only a guess, but I imagine it was used to raise/balance the left side of the car slightly, since that's where we drivers sit in the U.S.! --Andy * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Andre

- A far easier way to get as much or as little negative camber as you want is to use a block of wood under the spring perch atop the diffy.
