RebekahsZ Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 This is a question: other than tire wear, does running 3-ish degrees of negative camber via camber plates put a lot of additional wear on suspension components? I'm thinking mostly about steering rack and tie rods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnc Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Pay attention to your wheel bearings, tie rod ends, and ball joints. Inspect and grease them regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miky360 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 -3 of camber isn't much. Other than what JohnC has mentioned which you should be doing regularly, everything will be okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnosez Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 10 yrs of racing using the same rack with -3 in the front. Regular attention to the tie rods, ball joints and wheel bearings between races. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage42 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I've always run about -2.5" of camber without any sign of unusual wear. The high offset wheels and flares will certainly due much more to wear out the wheel bearings than negative camber with a standard offset wheel.
