Re: Re: Front End Camber Problem After Rebuild

tx for the reply. although the replacement springs actually have a shorter uncompressed length, once installed they raise the car about 3 inches (the old springs were spent). i double checked the upper control arms as they are really the only things I could have installed on the wrong side (the lowers have a sway bar mount to the front, so I know they are on right).
I have had two people suggest that springs can't possibly throw out the camber by that much and perhaps my frame needs pulling. I suppose the old weak springs could have been hiding an old frame problem, which now is noticible with the new springs. Who knows, maybe I bent the frame by not properly supporting the front end with jackstands during the job.
