Default ?

As it was once explained to me (not sure if its correct),,, that adding shims under inner and outer ball studs, in theory, makes the camber link longer. it doesnt physically make them longer but in the reactive camber, it acts like they are longer. also as the car center line rolls, the tire roll is more dramatic allowing the largest surface area of the tire to contact the track quicker around a corner. so if you are running -2 camber and higher ball studs, getting the tire to 0degrees camber around a corner is much quicker with the higher links. in theory helping generate traction.


ish.........dont quote me.

Just trying to figure out how shimming both up does for the car..
