[Fot] Mods for camber

[n197tr4 at cs.com]

Taking from Kas' 'cut the tube' we made adjustable tube and can adjust the
camber with heim joints. This is on two of our cars.

The TR4 for about 8 years, and now on the Ambro.....looks good too, and easy
to remove.

Folks are asking for them, so Sean is going to put into production, if you are
interested.

I think some pictures are on   photobucket.com/ambro

You were not permitted to alter the control arms during the early years or
witch out the ball joints or slot the holes for the ball joint..  I turned the
ivot arm around  and that gave some help , but then it was time to cut the
ross tube and call it chassis repair.

ell... I guess it kinda' is for me

 You can do a couple of very nice things for your handling by moving
 the pivot arm inwards
ot that I'm going to do it, but I am curious - Were those type of
uspension mods allowed back in the day - say 1962 GCR?
