Hi to the informed

And thanks in advance....



Just wonder , have swapped front struts over this after noon, camber is well out....


\ / <~ something like that in my best noobcad...

Question is I have to drive about 4-5 kms to get alignments done, will it be ok? If I drive real slow? Is there a chance anything could get damaged?

You'll be fine. I drove 6 months after the lift with an eyeball alignment so I could convince the missus to get new tyres quicker.

Look up instructions for setting up the camber bolts. Easily setup by eyeball in fact I have set mind to maximum negative camber in the past which still gave me a reading within spec just so I could remove and reinstall them later and still get the same adjustment. Most wheel aligners I have used are a bit lazy and will just set toe anyway unless you specifically ask them to adjust the camber bolts.

Thanks guys,
Its booked in tommorow at 9 for a wheel alignment,
Currently sitting in drive way with wheels pointing in crazy directions, I was half stressing about driving it to the tyre shop,. If it wont damage anything, I just drive it nice and slow.

Really not keen on playing with it at 730 in the morning.. just for 5 kms
