Excessive negative camber issue

[Roadkill_321]

Hi. I've got a bit of a problem with the front end of my car. It's a 1972 Roadrunner with a big block. I've got way to much negative camber.
I've checked out the adjusting cams and they are maxed out. Now what to do?
I've heard that these cars tend to have the frame rails sag inward over the years especially if it's a big block car. Not sure whether there is any truth to this or not, but I'd sure like to figure out how to rectify this problem.

Thanks for any and all advice.

Are the cams pointing outward or inward? For positive or 0 camber, the cam washers should be pointing more inward....other words the bolts are the center of the bushing and their placement is what needs to be looked at. I say this because many get confused on how this works. Are all the bushings in good shape including the lower control arm bushings? And welcome to the site

Thanks for the reply Cranky. The cams are facing inwards as far as they will go, so as to push the upper control arms outwards as far as they will go. As far as the lower control arm bushings, I haven't been under this old thing for a number of years and they are the original ones, so they are probably in need of replacing.

Have you heard anything about the frame rail issue? Just wondering.

moog makes an off set upper control arm bushing to get more positive caster. there was a good post on this on the fabo section.

Thanks, that would help some allright. Not sure if it would be enough though.
