do i got to do both at the sametime pls some one help me this
This front end works great but is a real pain to get adjusted. You have to adjust both turnbuckles at the same time to set caster and camber. Usually when you adjust camber you mess up your caster settings and vice versa. You just have to keep going back and forth until you get it right. Once your there it stays put even after some hards hits.

I use a camber gauge and my eyeball to set the caster first. Then i put the wheels on and set the camber. Then i check the caster gain and reset it. Then i put the wheels on and re-set the camber.

It really is hell the first time but one you got it making a caster or camber change usually take only 2 cycles to get perfect.
