Guys..
Just something to think about b/c I don't think it has been discussed before and could be an issue that many people are forgetting to think about.

Many people are trying to use washers between the bolt and the camber adjuster bracket on the rear suspension setups. However, this is not the best option by far and if you are doing any road racing, on track testing, etc., this brings up the issue of compliance of the washers and the "gap" between the flange and the chassis. You should think about having camber spacers machined at your local shop instead of the washers. You are bound to have a pretty funky camber curve in bump if you ask me (from my engineering and vehicle dynamics experience with Formula SAE cars). The flange on the control arm is bound to go into bending in addition to the washers having a compliance issue when they are "hardware store" pickups. Just my .02 There should be a lot more engineering talk on here than just "I think I know and I think this happens when I do this" with no data or anything to back it up. Lets keep this thread going to see what people think.

 

Washers + longer bolts = proven.

You can get your camber back in spec with this. I understand what you're saying, but it does work.

 

I agree that it "works" but you do have compliance issues with slight changes in camber which equals a change in contact patch which leads to decreased lap times or unexpected handling. Your camber curve will have a spike in it when you apply a given load and the flange goes into bending and/or the compliance in the washers becomes noticable.
