2G Rear Camber

[Dumplings]

Hello everyone, I was hoping someone could help me out with a simple question. I want to add more camber in the rear, i already have some with the washer trick. If i add more washers to it, do i get more camber? this sounds stupid now that im typing it but id rather ask then break something. Thank you guys

You want more positive camber? You can buy a kit for that pretty cheap.

No i was looking for more negative camber

The washers push the arm out for positive camber. If you want more negative camber, take out some washers.

Do you have your positive/negative mixed up?
Negative camber is where the upper center-line of the wheel (measured from left wheel to right wheel) is closer together than the lower center-line (measured from left wheel to right wheel).

i might have? i watched a video saying that the washers help with more negative camber, so i added them but now im not sure. i still have to take the ones i have off now and see if they make any difference

The washers help with more positive camber. Is your car lowered?

If you lower your car by design it adds negative camber ( top of tire leans in). People add washers to remove the negative camber. Stated another way add a little camber. The terms are typically remove camber ( negative) or add camber ( positive)

Dam, i should have known. I was skeptical to do it because in my head it made no sense because it would push the arm out more. I second guessed myself and ended up doing it anyways. . Thank you for the information

No problem...it is confusing as peolle also say let's add a little negative camber which would be removing washers. Makes sense....mostly.
