Let me start out by saying I think too much... With that out of the way, I'm wondering what the viability is of slotting the inner trailing arm mount to lower it, giving me more static camber. Here's the idea:
* Small slot of inner ear * 8mm "elevator" with welded tab to control the location of the inner mount prior to tightening the bolt. * Switch from the RSR Teflon bushings to monoballs and custom pivot shafts to allow for the increased angle Nuts or brilliant? I'm at something like 2.4 and would like to see 3+ if I could. Car is already pretty much in the weeds... -Aaron |

Short answer - don't do it.
Why do you want that much camber? No benefit on street and will wear your tires unnecessarily. If you are doing autocross, I suspect that would put you in modified class but I'm not up on latest SCCA rules. If you are racing there are better ways to achieve your end goal. If you want clearance for tires - roll the fender lip. |
