My 1972 914 is mostly alive and back on the road (subject to DMV approval).
I purchased this non-op car and noticed excesive wear on the 10 year old tires, but planned on replacing them any way. Now that its off the jacks and rolling, I noticed the rear wheels having an inward lean of say 7 degrees on both sides. I thought it might be short springs so I changed them with some spare stuts from my parts car. No change. I've searched on-line for tech articles on adjustment but so far zero. Any ideas Thanks chrispy |

Any ideas Thanks chrispy Rear camber on a 914 is set by adding or removing shims. Shims are removed to increase negative camber so it sounds like you don't have any shims installed. |
