They install usually on top of the strut and allow for fine camber adjustments. Camber plates are available for most car\/suspension set-ups. For coilover come with camber plate, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpeedingrods.com\/?tracking=blog\">MaXpeedingRods<\/a> sets at \u201c0\u201d position.

The camber plate adjustment direction must be perpendicular to the driving direction.<br>2. Make sure the center bolt is properly tightened.<br>3. To fasten the top plate to the car, use a wrench or a ratchet and tighten the nuts in place.<br>4. To adjust the camber angle, loosen the Allen screws on the top plate, slide the camber plate to the desired position and tighten the Allen screws (5lb.ft) back. You may need to jack the vehicle in the process to remove the weight on the suspension and make the adjustment easier.<br>5. Use the same camber angle on each side of the vehicle.<br>6. To avoid tire wear, visit a wheel alignment specialist to ensure your alignment is close to manufacturer specs. Excessive tire wear may occur on the inside part of the thread (tire) pretty quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Video on camber adjustment<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe  id=\"_ytid_59300\"  width=\"800\" height=\"450\"  data-origwidth=\"800\" data-origheight=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/85eANPjEUyk?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;modestbranding=0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MaXpeedingaRods produces adjustable camber plates coilovers for some models such as BMW e36, e46, which means that these owners can try adjust camber plates to unlock the potential of your street car or drift car.
