Default Hydraulic Suspensions and Camber

Anyone know how they deal with camber for those high cost hydraulic suspension setups? If your spending that much I figure they must have some sort of on the fly adjustable camber kit that changes with the ride height. Sound reasonable?

I doubt it. Camber is something that needs to be adjusted manually. Unless it has some sort of computer or brain to it, I don't see how it would figure out if its off center or not.

Yeah, you know I was at work, thinking about cars. It just kind of crossed my mind.

The Mercedes Benz SLK prototype had computer controlled adjustable camber. Pretty sweet.

Not likely on a Honda however.

Some Mercedes also have adjustable ackerman, and I'm pretty sure that adjustability went into production.

Very cool!
