[Fot] Mods for camber

[n197tr4 at cs.com]

We have the 'camber control rod'
and gary horskorta has an adjustable upper a arm.

gary's is very cool and very adjustable....he has sold several after I put it
in Classic Motorsports.

Ours is cheaper and easy to remove with engine and looks good with anodized
aluminum tube.

(we have an order from one wife as a christmas present. we will likely do a
one time run of 25 assemblies)

Yes that was the fix and is still used, ARE (Joe A) has a bolt on part that
s adjustable for that bar and there is in the states an adjustable upper a
arm that can be removed to go back to the "stock" upper arm..if that is
our wish

 spring towers closer together, changing the camber?
