Lower control arm alignment
« on: April 25, 2005, 04:20:20 PM »
Well after some modifications I'm welding on the lower control arm mount (the one that sticks out behind the crossmember) as it was sheared clean off. The alignment, I'd imagine needs to be spot on here as you only have alignment shims for the upper arms.

Using the lower control arm cross shafts as reference- should they be exactly parralel (and straight) to each other or are they supposed to be aligned differently? I do not know what the factory spec is here.

thanks

You're right there Cam. That guy definately has all the right info. He's helped me out a few times already.
