disconnecting upper arms
what is the correct way to do this?
i need to adust the top ball joint (camber),do i just undo the main pinch bolt that holds the mushroom in the knuckle,then pull out the mushroom
insert still connected to the upper arm.
then screw the ball joint in/out then insert the mushroom back into the knuckle doing the pinch bolt up again ??
thanks

Yeah, but take the wheel off, support the bottom wishbone with an additional jack, and firmly hold the upright with you knees as it is heavy and will
pivot right over on the bottom ball joint if you're not careful.

You could buy/make a camber adjuster system that lets you adjust camber without removing the top ball joint.
Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want!!!

The GTS wishbones make this a doddle, and you get infinitely fine adjustment rather than multiples of 1 thread.
