VortX super front end.
Triggerhappy - 1/6/09 at 11:33 AM

I have trouble in getting front camber correct.

The upper a-arm is fully "threded" in.
And lover a-arm´s inner rosejoints have aprox 20mm visible thread....how much thread can i safley wind out?

Obviously i have positive camber right now...it seams to me that lower A-Arms are simply to "short"....???

What goes?

i think for things that get screwed in (rose joints, top ball joints etc) i think they should should have 1.5x of the diameter of the thread screwed in, if that makes sense

I had the same problem, just the other way around, it was the top one that was to short.
I have the rose joint so long out, that there is only about 1 cm of thread in the wishbone, I was a bit nervous about it, but it has bin holding up to some hard track use.
I suspect that there is a narrow and wide track version, and that they sometime bye mistake mix the wishbones.
