Front suspension - Kicking myself.

Ever since I dropped my car down on its wheels, I've been looking at the front suspension angles and thinking, "It looks like the geometry is out, but I haven't set the tracking up properly yet so its probably just an illusion." That is to say that the Offside Front wheel looks like it has one heck of a lot more camber than the Nearside, and the nearside geometry looks about right.
Anyway today I was looking at it AGAIN, before I put the car away and I had a tape measure in my hand. Guess which numpty has put one upper wishbone in the Correct way (the nearside) and ONE UPPER WISHBONE in the WRONG way.. So tomorrow it looks like I am going to be stripping & refitting the Offside Front upper wishbone. .

Mind you now we've got my wifes mother living with us I can quite legitimately blame HER.

I can't wait to get the engine running & fill her bedrooom with exhaust gasses at some anti-social hour of the day.

No SHE is living with us. I feel like that manic depresive from the AIRPLANE movie.
