I wonder if anyone has documented the procedure for rotating the upper strut mounts..... a la Rockitman's pictorial blow by blow's.

I would be very interested to know what is actually involved and the camber change acheived. Also what effect the change has on caster.

Inquiring minds want to know!

Rotating the struts, removing the factory 1mm shims and sliding the strut tops to their minimum camber position gives about -2.5° camber and 8° caster statically. The dynamic changes are hard to describe, search the board for ldw's post on this subject.

If its the same as on the cup cars its fairly easy to do. There are 3 nuts up top that have to be taken off and then the studs that are in the mount have to be pressed out and back in the new holes. Not sure about the alignment changes but we did it to bet to 4.5 neg up front.

Yes, it's the same as on the Cup car. The studs have to be relocated to the other three holes (marked green), the factory setting comes with the studs on the red holes.

The minimum camber without shims is 2.5 degrees, and the maximum over 4 degrees, then you can add camber shims to increase camber even more.
