Competition Package Alignment Procedure
GENERAL INFORMATIONIf a vehicle is equipped with the optional competition package, (S/C ACR) the front wheel camber is adjustable.
Strut To Steering Knuckle Attachment With Competitive Package:
These vehicles come equipped with a special front strut. The clevis bracket used on this strut has a slotted hole for the bottom mounting bolt. Also, the bottom mounting bolt used on this strut has an eccentric at the head of the bolt When the bolt is rotated, the eccentric pushes against the flange and a raised tab on the clevis bracket. this forces the steering knuckle to change position relative to strut, thus changing the camber setting of the front wheel.
The allowable adjustment range of the front camber is from -1.00 degrees to +0.25 degrees.
NOTE: This vehicle is delivered from the dealer with the camber set to the preferred specification. The camber is only to be set to a specification that is not the preferred camber setting when the vehicle is going to be used in a competitive driveing event. The front camber must always be set back to the preferred camber specification when the vehicle is to be driven on the street under normal driving conditions.
PROCEDURE
Use the following procedure for adjusting the front camber on a vehicle equipped with the competition package.
1. Prepare vehicle as described in the Pre-Alignment Vehicle Inspection procedure.
2. Loosen the strut to steering knuckle upper mounting bolt enough to allow the steering knuckle to move in the strut.
3. Loosen the strut to steering knuckle lower mounting bolt enough to allow the bolt to rotate in the steering knuckle and strut.
4. Rotate the lower mounting bolt until the desired camber setting is achieved.
5. When camber is set to the desired specification, tighten the strut to steering knuckle bolts to a torque or 53 Nm (40 ft. lbs.) plus an additional 1/4 turn after required torque is met.
