I'm having a problem getting enough negative camber out of the front of my 951 with the racer's edge camber plates and Leda coilovers.

I max out at -2.4.

Any ideas? I would think I would get plenty as lowered as it is. With those camber plates, is the stock position all the way outboard? That is, the bearing and strut top is against the outer piece of the plate?

Any Ideas?

Any ways to correct?

Thanks

Outboard?! You better call the place you got them from and ask for user info! Good luck. TC

What I've seen with camber plates, outboard away from the engine makes camber more positive and inboard towards the engine more negative.

Ditto the above statement

The "stock" position meaning factory alignment specs. ? I guess that depends on the range of camber adjustment you want. If you moved the strut top/bearing all the way outboard and then had the car aligned to the factory camber setting (what is that? -0.5 degrees or something?) then you would have the greatest range of negative camber adjustment availible. -0.5 degrees to - whatever the full travel of the slot allows. Probably alot more than -2.4 degrees.

You might want to call racer's edge and ask them first. Also try to look and see how close the coil springs are to touching the inner fender towards the top on the inside. If you have lots of room you should be able modify the plates if you're out of adjustment, to move them more towards the center of the engine bay.

I did talk to Karl at Racer's edge. It look slike they are installed correctly about .050 from the outside edge of the plate. this is the stock position. My problem is that I can't move the top adjustment per PCA stock rules. Karl suggested that my shock may have been from a batch that had the eccentric slot machined too small. I'll be taking them off soon and elongated the eccentric slot if necessary to get to the prescribed 19mm.

Thanks for all the replies!
