I'm about to order adjustable ball joints, but having a dilemma on which ones to order. There are 2 different ones i could choose from in which how many degrees could be adjusted:

-1.50° to +1.50°
+1.50° to +3.00°

Which one is needed? Please help!

Thanks!

 

For what application? Track car, street/ track car, or street car?

would like to know also

 

Depends on slick size and suspension travel. When the car lifts at the line it wants to be at 0 degress camber. If you can bolt your slicks on and then put the car approximately where it is after leaving the tree then thats the adjustment range you want.

so, if it wants to be at 0 degrees camber... i wouldn't need anything from the range of +1.50° to +3.00°, correct?

i know i'm not the only one who wants to know this

 

This taken from an old post by Tony1..this is how I will set up my car when the time comes.. Not sure if it is what you are looking for but it is good info none the less.


"Positive caster is a good thing in a race car, but you can't really do it on a honda w/o some pretty major modifications to the suspension. You should run a little negative camber, maybe .5 deg. or so, so that when the front lifts the camber is straight. I would also recommend 1/8" of toe in to help keep the car straight. If it still doesn't hook or go staight then the problem lies elsewhere..."

 

thanks!
