Rear tyres scrub out heaps on the inner edge and thinking of installing one of the camber kits to see if I can adjust it out a bitQuick link to what im reffering to: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=171749601121&alt=webSent from my GT-I9506 using Tapatalk

There's the option of adjustable upper links as well. But more costly obviously.http://www.k-mac.com/pages/newprods/ford/ford.htmLabour cost for either will be the killer.

Reckon it would be worth the money to get the full arm?Can cut out the labor cost and do in the workshop after hours or on a saturday if needed. Shouldnt be overly hard, I hope...Sent from my GT-I9506 using Tapatalk

In this case you would only need to lower it,rather than remove it fully.But you would be mad to go to that effort and not replace the diff bushes at the same time.Another option would be a set of rear uprights from an early ba or bf fpv that have camber adjustable upper arms.

Apparently they dont split like the regulars, or are less prone to splitting. Can get the upper arms out without dropping the cradle, its just a sh*t of a job from memorySent from my GT-I9506 using Tapatalk
