Arbarth 500 rear "I" beam build issues

We see a lot of these pocket rockets due to the fact the OEM dampers work very poorly with the OEM coils. After a damper install the chassis is measured and calibrated but we have noticed a problem.

 

On most cars measured we have found the rear "I" beam misaligned, this means the thrust angle and in some cases the camber angles are outside of the suggest settings.

 

Officially the rear toe/ camber and ultimately thrust is not adjustable..... But it is at wim

Note the change in OSF camber as well, this is showing how the sprung chassis moves during a camber change even if this is at the rear.....

 

Credit for this research goes to CIH aka Pete/ Pedro :huh:
