Massive camber issue! 96 5 lug prerunner

His commercials for his LT kits will be "construction site tested, dipshit approved"

 

I made my LT kit out of Popsicle sticks? What's the big deal?

 

yours is more sturdy because its made of wood

 

yep, but the kit only as strong as the wood glue that's holding it together.

 

no glue. notch it

 

If he uses Elmers Glue he should be good 2 go .

 

actually, a video would go a long way, I am interested in seeing the suspension in action, he is young, gots plenty of time to get better...

 

Im from california, lived in california, my dad lives in california, worked for multiple race teams. I moved to SC two years ago. And we have miles of sketchy rutty whooped out dirt roads, massive clay pits, and dunes on the coast. And its 3/16 cold rolled steel plated on every face, not wood. Its not pretty but it works. Would a loose race in a wheel bearing cause negative camber? The bearing is in good shape but the race wiggles inside of it

 

full droop
in the dirt

 

Looks like he showed you guys.

 

this

 

ive gotten my solara dirtier, didnt mean i mobbed in it...

 

How? just because he's been able to drive it some doesn't mean it's not a danger to other people on the road.

 

yes it does

 

Fuck!!!!!!

 

Why are all your pictures taken in snapchat?

 

I am going to treat this like he is serious, and not trolling.....

Part of the problem right there. If ANYTHING moves in the wheel bearing area, the bearings need to be checked and or replaced. Period.

Did you extend not only the upper, but the lower control arms EXACTLY 3 inches? Not 3.12" for one, and 3.00" for the other, but EXACTLY 3 inches? ANY variation will cause incorrect alignment of the ball joints, and incorrect alignment issues. Also, when extending a control arm pair for long travel, because you increase the fulcrum length, you increase the vertical press on the control arm. This means that using stock coils will cause your suspension to sit lower than normal. Correcting this by using a proportionally longer spring will get the base angle of the steering spindle into proper position.

Just because it was accurate at the beginning does not mean that the control arms have not been damaged/bent slightly. It does not take much to cause this, which WILL affect your camber.

I have never seen any logical reason at all to use Heim joints where the control arms connect to the frame. Actually that type of joint in that location would most likely increase the likelihood of having strange issues with suspension movements.

 

Psst, im heimed on my upper arms. No bushings to blow out. He on the other hand.....I dont even .....

 

A lot of upper arms are heimed so you can solid mount the lowers and still have alignment adjustment
