bud660r -> strut ? camber issue (10/3/2006 8:45:24 PM)

ok my camber is about 4 degrese off "top of tire is out more than the bottom" would this be a sign of a bent strut?
also what is a good strut to get for a resonable price preff under 90$ ea

do you have lowering springs, aftermarket coilovers?

no!

well if the strut is bad then you would have alot of banging. This seems like some kinda other suspensoin issue, like a joint or something

well i took it appart today and nothing is bent"or looks bent" i did replace the tie-rod on the passenger side "thats the side i am having all the trouble" when i brought it in to get it all lined up the said they couldnt help me, so i went to another shop and they said that it might be a strut , so pretty much i am lost and am replacing stuff till it goes away. so any help on this one is awsome

the only other thing that i thought of is that the frame might be bent a little. that that just happens by bending it from on side to that other, nothing that i heard of it messing up the camber.

well i went to replace the upper control arm, and i noticed that one of the mounting bolts was pushed through a little, so i put in a new upper control arm and put in a washer between the car and the controll arm , it semed to make it a little better so i am going to take it up and see if the can alighn it now.

thanks for the tips!
