Setting Rear Axle Camber:
For setting the camber, twist the screw (A) of the upper
transverse link as for the front axle.
A suitable open-faced spanner or flat pliers can be used
for turning. An opening in the hexagon of the screws (A)
permits pushing in a thin pencil or a thin screwdriver for
turning as well.
Because this screw has a left and right hand thread at ei-
ther end, the transverse link does not need to be disman-
tled for the camber to be adjusted.
The axle stub (B) has several different suspension points for the upper transverse link. If the transverse link was at-
tached in a different location, this would change the camber when the wheel deflects and extends. The manufacturer
already selected the best setting for the vehicle. Therefore, the attachment point (B) should not be changed.
Observe:
• Change the settings at the front and rear axles each only gradually and then check the changed running
conduct to see if it corresponds to your expectations. Write down the changes made so that you can easily
reverse them again.
• Twist the screws of the two transverse links at the front axle and the rear axle evenly at all times, since
different settings at the left/right wheel will cause unforeseeable driving behaviour.
