Ive seen trucks with no camber at all no matter what height. How is this possible? whats the calculation that you have to figure out to do this.
Im making no control arms for my nissan hardbody which has some really bad camber laid out on 22's. It looks stupid so i want it perfect at any height. thanks

They basicly have to be equal length arms and be parallel to each other.

--------------------------------------------- Originally posted by TuckingLugs05 well its ok for a bagged mini ...they are not sports cars --------------------------------------------- Max just wrote an article in MT about camber gain and why it is necessary. Even on a minitruck that "doesn't need to handle well." It's necessary on any vehicle.

A vehicle with no camber will have a loss of traction when turning. All vehicles should have at least a slight bit of camber built into them. No matter if its a race car or a daily driver. Definately read Max's camber rant in one of the newer issues.
