Anyone ever realize Honda sells a front Camber Kit for our cars? I noticed it when I was paging through the tech manual under alignment. They have part numbers and all for the front bolts that you use to adjust camber. Don't have the numbers off hand but anyone with the tech manual (big teal book for 2001) can confirm this. Just another idea for keeping as much oem as possible. Peace

Your front wheels will not camber.

Camber is not a verb. Front and Back wheels CAN have + or - camber.

Yeah ok thank you for the grammer lesson. I knew that. Camber is a noun. Now the question is what does that have to do with the question asked?

First part of his response was to correct your grammer
Second part was to correct your misinformation

He most likely didn't want you feeding the guy asking the question wrong info

you can't camber the front wheels your sayin ?? only tha rear?? why is that??

the camber on the front does change, just not by that much... the back however does, this is due to macpherson struts in the front and double wishbone in the back.

The design of the McPhearson struts does not allow for a change in camber. They will change a little but not enough tp throw you out of spec. In technical terms McPhearson strut: a telescopic member incorporating damping with the wheel rigidly attached at it's lower end, such that the strut maitains the wheel in the camber directon; the upper end is fixed to the body and the lower end is located by linkages which pick up the lateral and longitudinal forces. Also since the McPhearson struts are independant the disturbacne of one wheel does not directly affect the transversely opposite wheel. The rear however is a double wishbone suspension which is a suspension configuration in which an upper and a lower A-arm control and upright hub carrier. Also since there was a question about what camber was it is an inclination of a wheel outward with respect to the body.

2cute are you an engineer or something? That was quite an explanation. I feel like I have been schooled for the day [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
