Cracking video mate not something I’m looking at doing but do like to watch the progress on yours, feel your pain with the ford bolts! I’ve had loads on mine like that soft as warm toffee bloody blu-Tack would be stronger, looking forward to seeing what’s coming up, congratulations on another subs milestone, inevitable to keep growing with the content you’re putting out

Thanks Paul I really appreciate it mate and I know I wish they used better metal on the shells too we’d be able to maintain and preserve them a lot better haha

Nice vid, keep them coming :) gotta say i'm not sure about plastic for this job. I'm half way building an ST150 NA race car - engine arrives next week .... to get rear camber we milled the axle spacers so they're standard width at the bottom and thinner at the top. We have 3 different sizes. To change camber angles for a particular track, we just change the spacers +/- EZ ;) to get adjustable front camber, we welded rose joints into the wishbones.

Thanks mate much appreciated and No I wasn’t either as its a lot to juggle when fitting and I’m sure with heat transfer on a track you could risk them melting and what sort of money would you charge for the machined ones as I’d be definitely interested as it’d be a much cleaner setup than what I’ve got now I’m just after 20mm with -1.5 degrees and have you got any photos of the wishbones? That you could send me on Facebook/Instagram

My no is 07948 410119 - I’ll whatsapp you some pics. I’ve got the original 20mm spacer that we milled 1.5mm off. It’s too wide for my rims/tyres, I need to look for the other spacer 😩 To get -1.5 degree we’d need to mill it again cos it’s closer to 3.5. It was a test :) Message me & I’ll share stuff with you. Cheers. Pete

did you do a before and after pic? be cool to see a side by side. so are those grey plastic things slightly thicker on one side more than the other which is what achieves the camber?

I’ll have to dig some photos out as I kicked myself after as I forgot to film the before and yeah mate bang on they’re tapered so gradually get thicker then thinner

Awesome upgrade. When you do the rust repair on the archers. You when do the area around the spring tops and chassic. As in the video the area looks rusty. By the exhaust.

Definitely 😂😂 and thanks mate from first impressions it feels a lot more planted the rear would always feel a bit skippy and loose even when you’re not really going for it but now is quite nice will have to put it through it’s paces at some point and see how it goes

Nice end result, is there any problem with the plastic compressing or wearing? I bet you are sick of taking those hubs/brakes off by now? :D

How is your tyre wear? Mine sits about the same. I have 18" rims and 215 tyres. The inside of my tyre wears out like crazy.

Was that heatproof paint you used on the calipers mate? If so how come it's only lasted this long?

hey man, great video! i read that you’ll gain about 1,5° of camber with the shims.. can they be stacked to get more camber as i probably need more on my car? cheers
