Negative Camber 78 Eclat

[Roger007]

I have a 78 Eclat, if the rear road springs are old and worn out would it give the rear wheels a negative camber?
I have replaced all of the rear suspension bushings and the camber is still negative.

thanks for your help

Hub bearings are okay? If so, the springs are about all there is left back there.

Hey Doc,
thanks for the reply, the hub bearings are new I guess the springs will half to be replaced.

Thanks

You'd notice more difference in a lower-than-standard ride height than in camber if the springs were that tired.

Isn't that what's happened?

Isn't that what's happened?

Probably, Doc, but he didn't say so. If he's got normal ride height and negative camber it may be something else.

 

[Roger007]

The ride height is not to spec, the rear end of the car has sagged about 1.5 inches.

Sounds like springs, then. Good Luck!
