:headscratch:    Im not going out a 2am besides, whats the angle finder going to do for me attached to the rotor? I need camber not caster.
not for a toy



As far as i know camber is the tilt in and out of the wheel.

and caster is the angular displacement from the vertical axis

So the rotor is on the same camber as the wheel and would give you the angle? Am I wrong?

Also cool idea, If you had a billet high steering arm, you could ofset the pin and change the camber? I dunno If it would be a good idea or help, but cool to think about.

Props for BUDDERS for just throwing that out.

Funny camber video!
