Castor/Camber bolt instalation

peakandscoot · Dec 17, 2017

I have rebuilt my entire front end of my 62 Fury. I put my castor/camber bolts in but have not tightened them down yet. I'm not sure what i need to do as far as an initial setting. Can someone walk me through the process.

You trying to get it to a alignment shop or make it drivable?

peakandscoot · Dec 17, 2017

it just came off the rotisserie and it going to be a while before its drivable. Im sure once im done and get new tires and wheels for it. i will have it aligned then. I didn't want to just push the bolts in and tighten them if there was a procedure to get it close.

According to an article in Mopar Action, "if you want to make a ballpark pre-alignment-shop guesstimate that wont trash the tires in 20 miles, adjust the rear cam all the way in and the front centered".

Just do not tight them while the car is in the air.....do not tighten any of the front end bolts with bushings until the weight of the car is at least close to ride height

Yep! Car should be on the ground, level floor prefered, engine in.

Good alignment section in the service manual, tells you what order the various settings are done in.
I 'pre-set' my 64, using a tape, and square.
