adjustable rear bushs????????

[chunkylover]

Chaps i gotta fit some of these rear adjustable trailing arm bush's on my cally t. The only thing is i have no instructions with this kit. I can see how you get them out and in but how do you adjust them?? I've got a bush that is in 2 halfs with an insert and a 4" bolt which has some splines around the collour and then i have 2 bolts for each bush. Sorry but i'm a little confused tbh. Any help would be grand... Cheers

any pics chap. i got adjustables on mine you have to get them set up at a garage, that has 4wd camber tracking.

Ok I've fitted these bushs and all sort of went to plan. BUT when i sent the motor of to get the front track sorted out after i lowered it and the rear camber set up, it came back with the steering still out (the other way now) and the camber was apperently correct already, but i only set it by eye!! I find it hard to beleive that i got the camber right on both side setting it by eye but they recon i did.
The thing is now tho that the rear TOE is 55min out on the n/s and 36min out the o/s. I think i'm right in saying that if the rear toe is out the only way to correct it would be to change the rear arms. Does that sound right?

na, the inner bush does camber, the outer does toe, you should have 4 ajustable bushes in a complete kit.

Yeah i have 4 bushs but funny enough there was no instructions when i got it. Still amazed they fit. They were designed for a Holden commodore. Can you think of any other reason for the steering to be out other than that i had a monkey working on it?

Check it by eye, put the steering wheel straight, and line up by eye each wheel, may sound daft, but the spec of the front isnt exactly "accurate" anyway.. you should be able to see by eye if one is pointing much different to the other.
