Camber Adjustment - Rear

General Procedure 

• 1.
  
  
  NOTE: Suspension fasteners are critical parts that affect performance of vital components and systems. Failure of these fasteners may result in major service expense. Use the same or equivalent parts if replacement is necessary. Do not use a replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Tighten fasteners as specified.
  NOTE: To allow for rear camber adjustment, the upper arm is slotted at the upper arm-to-wheel knuckle joint. Rear camber is adjusted from the factory with the wheel knuckle pushed inboard for maximum negative camber. If the camber is more negative than specification, the top of the wheel knuckle should be positioned outboard to adjust the rear camber to the positive position.

  Using alignment equipment and the manufacturer's instructions, measure the rear camber.
