Hi chaps, finally got round to the rear suspension. I have set both angles on the spring plates using the clinometer exactly the same. Its looking good to me , it needs to settle down, I got a bit of positive camber. I fitted 2 sets of caster shims too along with the longer bottom tube bolts.

Hey up , Can I use the clinometer I used on the rear spring plate to check camber on the front, I keep reading 1 degree camber is the norm. I set mine as straight up as I could get them. I have the extra travel top ball joint washers fitted . I'm not lowered at the front. Its sitting level with a spirit level on the door sills.

Yes, but your reference isthe side to side level of the ground. Ie if the ground isn’t level and the car is leaning slightly then zero the level first.

Stock is slightly positive camber at the front, but I like a touch of negative.
