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.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hey all, I had my C4S in for an alignment yesterday, and I am hardly pleased wth the results. Quick background: car is lowered with H&R springs and Bilsteins. Not that it is hugely critical but I also have Tarett sway bars and links. Wheels are stock C4S with 15mm spacers. The issue is in the rear. The shop got my toe to 0.3 deg total, but my left camber is -3.1 deg and right is -1.3 deg. According to my searches, although I am lowered, it should be possible to get back to less than -2 deg camber and hold my toe without adjustable toe links or control arms. Does anyone have any insight on this? Yes I am displeased with the camber variance they left in there...

POST 2Original post

I have never got more than more than -1 degree of camber on a lowered 996 and set the toe correctly without adjustable toe links.

POST 3Original post

I have attached a copy of the alignment performed on my lowered C4s. According to the tech without adjustable links my camber would not be changed beyond -2*

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'd be happier at -2 deg in the rear without the additional links. What could be that bent that could lead to over -3 deg in the rear? It started there as well. What I really don't get is how one side came back in, and the other is out by a mile.

POST 5Original post

Toe changes affects camber. Post your alignment sheet. Anytime there is something wonky like this I highly recommend having a second alignment done, possibly even at another shop, to verify. But yes, rear toe links are a must if you drop 2"+.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Again - I am all ears... If it really matters, I did a cut down hockey puck spacer to bring up the lower spring mounts slightly in the rear. Maybe a 1/2".
