How to adjust camber angle on Nissan Patrol?

Camber angle has been pre-set to specification indicated on this product. • Installation takes only a few minutes. • Raise the front wheel requiring alignment correction off the ground. and install in its place a shim-a-line king pin bearing cap of the required offset. G.U. Nissan Patrol & later – 80/1 00 series Toyota replace top cap.

How long does it take to change camber angle?

• These unique Patented shim-a line kin pin bearing caps replace the original non-offset cap. Camber angle has been pre-set to specification indicated on this product. • Installation takes only a few minutes.

Why does camber change with different road speeds?

The engineers account for the fact that wheel alignment specifications used by alignment technicians are for a vehicle that is not moving. On many vehicles, camber changes with different road speeds. This is because aerodynamic forces cause a change in riding height from the height of a vehicle at rest.

Is there a large nut for the camber adjuster?

Yeah the large nut is basicaly just for locking the allen keyed adjuster. It is just an eccentric adjustment so when moved left or right it adjusts the camber but obviously when moved backwards or forwards it would have an effect on castor and everything in between.

What should the toe angle be on a camber wheel?

Camber = between -0.25 to +1.25 degrees (0.5 to +1 for 2WD) Caster = between 1.75 to 3.25 degrees (2 to 3.5 for 2WD) Toe-In Angle= between 0.12 to 0.18 degrees (same for 2WD) Okay – with the above, the standard alignment person can put your front-left wheel at -0.25 degrees camber, 3.2 degrees caster, and 0.17 degrees of toe.

What is the difference between Camber positive and negative camber?

2. Camber Positive camber means the tyre and wheel assembly leans outwards at the top and negative camber means it leans inwards at the top. When you change your camber angle, wheel alignment should be checked and adjusted accordingly.

What does it mean when your tire camber is negative?

If the top of the wheel is leaning out from the center of the car, then the camber is positive ,if it’s leaning in, then the camber is negative. If the camber is out of adjustment, it will cause tire wear on one side of the tire’s tread.
