[TR] TR6 Front Suspension

You mentioned new springs, are they the 1 inch lower springs that are available? That will cause an excessive negative camber and in my case with a 4A (frame same as a 6) I could not use any shims in the lower arms and still had too much camber. I needed to modify the upper A-Arms to reduce the negative camber. You may need to do the same.

Do you have the upper fulcrum pin in the correct orientation and do you have any shims on the lower arm mounts ?

How do you take out negative camber in the front suspension??  After rebuilding my car on a new Ratco frame, I took my car to have the four wheel alignment done.  On the machine the front wheel camber was

minus 3.0 on both wheels.  Is there any way to take some of that out.  The only different between this frame suspension and the old are new ball joints and new springs.  Any body have any thoughts??

Thanks
