So I'm trying to set up my camber close enough to drive. Goal is 0 degrees camber. And for the life of me I can't get away from positive camber.I have upper a arms adjusted as short as possible, bottom pulled out on the slots of the kmember. And ride height where I wanted it. Still alittle positive. Any suggestions?

I hope I don't need another set, these don't have any use on them. Any ideas on how to pick up alittle negative camber? With the upper a arms as short as they can go, I have 3.5" wheel to fender clearance up front right now. I know lowering it may get a alittle.

Are your upper a-arms side specific? If so, do you have them on the correct side?

Ahh ok, I see someone else says set caster first, them camber, then lastly toe. Can someone give me the run down on what exactly adjusting the upper a arm and lower a arm affects? Im kinda new to alignments. Like I mentioned uppers are adjustable, lowers are adjustable and kmember has slots for the lower a arm.

There's only 2 bolts on the bottom to adjust. The suspension is these car is prehistoric compared to modern suspensions. The camber and castor are both dependent on each other. The more neg camber you add the higher your caster will go up.
