Fix one thing and another pops up.
I was poking around the porsche tonight trying to size up the wiring for a replacement antenna. I decided to take the drier bottle from the discarded AC out as well.
I turned the tires to get some more room. Popped out the drier bottle thanks to a little PB Blaster (God Bless you PB people). About 2 cups of dirt fell out from behind the bracket and bottle. I returned to the other side of the car to take another look at the wires and BADOW -- BALD TIRE. MY right front is balder than I am. Probably 10-12000 miles on these Yoko AVS's. The camber is pretty negative up front so I figured they would wear faster on the insides. The other one is okay and the rears are great. I'll have to go check the pressure. Otherwise the alignment is wacky. Question- How do you know if you have the bump steer fix installed? This car was delivered at this height from purchase (have the invoice). There is a decent angle up from the steering rack with the wheels turned. Photos to follow in a minute.

there would be spacers between the rack and crossmember.

Yeah, That's what I thought. I'm still trying to VID them.
My right front definitely has more camber on it than the other. What are some good specs for a mostly street daily driver? It is lowered. i think about 24.5 in front and about 23.5 in back.

Look at a picture of the kit at Pelican. They are big silver washer looking things. Then glance at where your steering rack bolts up, you will see wheater or not you have it.

How do you adjust the camber of the front wheels?
