[Terry Rudd] Yes it will affect camber and possible caster too. Alignments are set in the order of camber, castor and then toe.   regards Terry    mark k ----- Original Message ----- From: mark krawczuk To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 01, 2003 2:06 PM Subject: draglink/tie rod end problem??? hi, i  bolted up my lower controll arms  on my 1600, and after i connected  the tie rod ends etc....... i noticed that  one  wheel was sorta straigh ahead, and the other was off on a angle a fair bit....   i rang up  SWR   (where i got the draglink :reversed: from) and he said that  its possible you will need a adjustment on the tie rod ends. and he also said if its  too far out  (need to wind out the tie rod ends too far ) , send the  draglink back, and he would do another  one for me...   sounds good, but i couldnt be bothered taking out the other link,   i need about another  inch or so on the tie rod  joiner thingy to get decent adjustment.   is there any other  adjuster bolt thing that i could  put in, or something else to get around this problem\?   mark k --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
