How To Fit Camber Shims ?

[maccavvy]

Hi guys I have some camber shims/wedges to go on the back of my 2b.

I have read how to fit them ,what bolts to undo and cut them in half etc .

 

but which way round does the wedge go ,orientation wise and how can I check the camber and toe without going for proper alignment ??

 

ive done a search and didn't find anything about the orientation

thick part to the top...assuming your wheels lean inwards at the top like they usually do.

Proper alignmant is th ebest way to go....anything welse is too imprecise.

Assuming the shims are for both camber and toe then the thick parts go at the top (as Bob suggests) for camber as the swinging arm is sitting higher than it does in a Sierra and at the front for toe for the same reason.

Who sells these? I really want and need a set for my s7.

Hello Marcus if you got them from me and are the toe/camber versions the instructions say fit the thicker side towards the front of the car to reduce the toe in.
