Suggestion · Original poster

On a 996 it seems to me (please correct me if I'm wrong) that if you change camber, it also changes toe making the plate pretty useless since you need to realign the whole thing...I have also been told that there are race bottom arms with open bottoms and where you can add washers to get to the camber setting you want.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Does anyone here have any experience with camber plates? On a 996 it seems to me (please correct me if I'm wrong) that if you change camber, it also changes toe making the plate pretty useless since you need to realign the whole thing...I have also been told that there are race bottom arms with open bottoms and where you can add washers to get to the camber setting you want. Do you guys know anything about that? Thanks in advance JM

POST 2Original post

JM: Changing Camberplate settings is not considered a "field" adjustment. Altering camber settings changes caster and makes very small changes to toe. This is usually done at setup time on the alignment rack. Anytime you adjust a Camberplate, you need to check and adjust (if needed) camber, caster & toe. One can install the GT-3 lower control arms and adjust camber with shims,....

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Steve, Is tha a "simple" field mod to change camber with the gt3 control arms? How much do those babies cost? TIA JM

POST 4Original post

JM: You can install the GT-3 lower control arms yourself if you have the tools but the car must obviously be realigned afterward,..... I've not retrofitted these to the earlier 996 yet, but I think there are more parts to be changed in this project beside the arms and it would not be cheap.
