Anywhere for Castor/Camber Adj in Mids

[Matty]

Just got some GSD3s fitted to the front as the old Bridgestone S03s I have had for 2.5 years are now scary in this weather.

On checking the tracking they said the castor/camber is out on the drivers side wheel. This was a result of a so called Renault Specialist ballsing up my settings when the coilovers were removed to fit a strut brace. Wont be touching that place again !!!!

Obviously need this checking before I unevenly wear my fronts out.

Anyone know of a place in the Midlands? Think Elite do it but they are in Essex !!!!

Hope some1 can help.

castor/camber is not adj on a std valver.

Have FK Automotive coilovers on front that have this adjustment. This was not noticed by "Renault Specialist" when these were removed to fit a strut brace and when it was put was put back wrongly.

Will check this place in Northampton. Hopefully they can give me a little negative camber which is what I think the place set the car up with when the coilovers were fitted. Would go back to them but they are in Taunton.

Just checked their website, 80 quid. Suppose I will have to pay thanks to Hillpower !!!!

Hmmmm youve got caster adjustment on the fk coilovers too? cool

Have you spoken to Nick about this problem? cos Id be suprised if he wouldnt want to fix the problem he inadvertently caused - hes a good blokey.

west mids motor sport may be a good place to try i know they are pug specialists but bloody top blokes

Thanks everyone. Coilovers have camber adjustment, not sure about castor. Just need everything sorting out before I dangerously wear the inside of the tyre out.

Got to wait till next week when every1 resumes business as normal.

You could always get a camber gauge like this one and do it yourself. Means you can play around with the angle as much as you like then!
