If you race HSR I won't tell you.
We expended numerous hours to solve this little dilemma. Actuality we were able
to get some negative with the offset bushings, but it was not easily
adjustable. We worked with Bob Wagner at Atlanta Import Auto Parts and came up
with a solution that allows about as much negative as you want and is
reasonably adjustable.
Basically we cut the end off a shock and installed a threaded hole down the
axis. We developed a new "collar" for the upper fulcrum and also installed a
threaded hole down the axis. By screwing the deal in and out, we can adjust the
camber. We are running this on two cars that have been know to run near the
front and have not experienced any problems. The extra negative camber helps on
bias tires, but absolutely critical on radials. We set the camber with a tire
temp gauge.
The keepers of the vintage spirit will not appreciate this butchery. You could
probably save yourself a lot of time and aggravation if you could convince Bob
Wagner to make a setup for you. His number is 404 299 5775.
The other solution is the "frontline" kit. Mini Mania & ProperMG carry it. It
replaces the lever shocks with tubes and installs 2 degrees negative-no
adjustment. It is about $800.
