Eagle Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Leaning in at the top would be negative camber. It should by zero, of course. First, visuals can be deceiving. If you haven't had it checked on an alignment machine, you should do so. If you don't want to spring for the cost, park your vehicle on a surface that you know is 100% level, then put an angle finder or carpenters level on the wheel rims (not the tires) to check. Camber is not normally adjustable in a standard alignment, but they make offset balljoints that will correct it by replacing the ball joints.

Bounty Hunter Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 The chain parts-stores sell offset upper balljoints to correct the camber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
