joeB12 Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 A car running excessive camber is something we see every day at WIM. If you've got a 3 Series BMW, a Mazda MX5 or even a MK3 Golf, it isn't an issue. A factory adjuster means that with the correct know-how and equipment, it can be adjusted out, to cure any handling gripes, uneven tyre wear issues, or a painful pull to one side whilst driving. But what if your car has no factory adjuster? For example the Alfa Romeo Breras tyre wear problems are legendary, but with no adjuster, and no aftermarket adjuster, what is one to do?Fiat 500 Abarths are bought out on 'sports springs' but the lower ride height splices the camber angles and the camber gains around an extra negative degree. Problem.So you used to either change tyres every 5,000 miles or raise your car up nice and high so it handles like the titanic, and eventually crashes into an iceberg because the under steer is horrendous. Powerflex have released their black series range, an eccentric sleeve in a polyurethane bush with a collar that can be adjusted on-car using a 'c' spanner. Problem solved.Available at WIM. Of course.Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeB12 Posted April 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 They are mainly applications for cars with no after-market alternative. Honda tend to use the adjustable ball joints on the upper A-arm if I'm not mistaken? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
