Self camber adjustment

[ilovewilly]

I have had some Ktec coilovers now since Day 1 and havn't got round to getting them fitted as I have been looking into taking it somewhere to get it done and all set up.

Enough is enough and rather than pay extra for fitting, which I could do myself, I have decided I may aswell fit them and then take them to a specialist to get them properly adjusted camber wise and height.

But one thing I am wondering, is what to do about the camber until I take it to a garage. I am thiking just to put the camber all the way to one side on both so its as far as it goes so it is equal, but wonder what people with experience of DIY fitting have done. I will only probably drive it a few miles a day for a week or so.

I left mine in the centre, kinda trial and error though in my case (which is time consuming) until they looked straightish.

Ah right, centre.

Suppose a pair of digital verniers to get it near enough in the centre should get it good enough for a little light use. But I expect there are tolerances that mean it needs to be adjusted to match externally rather than exactly on the bolt spacing.

Rears are defo something I could fit myself rather than pay garage labour to do ontop of alignment. Just the weather and lazyness has held me back.
