my shocks are dead havent swapped out new oil yet but I dont see how that matters if both sides are same height?

Tou have to put spacers below your chassis (30mm) wich is approximatively your ride height ...

Ride height is off, and you're missing a washer behind the top pillow ball.

not sure I understand what you mean by behind the top pillow ball.

camber is adjusted with the top pillow ball. castor is adjusted by the spacers on the upper inner arm mount.

cyba888

To adjust camber I either add or remove this washer correct?
If this is the case then I have same washers on both sides of the car but why am I getting different camber readings?

You need to add 2 washers on the top arm with the mbx7r.

are the steering link the same lenght?
is the steering centered?

Problem solved after I put new oil in the shocks. Now both side camber reading is the same.

Thanks everyone for your help

Oil in the shocks effects camber?

cyba888

Its weird... with the Hudy camber gauges mounted on the car if I lift the front all the way up or push down on the car, left and right side camber reading would still have difference of 1.5 degree. I am still confused as to how new shock oil fixed the problem.

Best guess - when you dropped the car to check the camber one side may have rebounded differently, due to the shock oil, and caused the chassis to slightly tilt to one side throwing off your camber. Only thing I can think of...

Or the play on the pillow balls is different on the left and right side.
Or the steering isn't perfectly centred.

Does it need to be on the 30mm blocks and the radio on so the front tires are straight
