Hi,

I'm borrowing some pictures from the forum at Turbo Performance Club to show you guys a new product.






These plates are available in either 3.4 or 5 degrees.

Hmmm interesting
I'm under the impression that these are designed to add negative rear camber degrees to a car.
so the following question may be stupid...
Could these plates be used to correct negative rear camber situations for lowered non-awd S60/V70's?
IPD offers a rear lower contral eccentric bushing only for the AWD S60/v70.

I guess, no. IIRC S60/V70 have independent rear suspension.
But I haven't seen any of those cars rear suspension..

To the OP: do you have any more info on that rear coilover setup? Did you strengthen the top strut mount, if so, how?
Could you post more pics of it?

ya us here in the states need to get the rear coilovers before we are needing rear camber plates

It's not my car but and I don't have much info. It's non adjustable and custom built for the car by the Swedish company Sellholm Tuning.
There's some more pictures of the coilovers here. You have to register on the forum to access it.

OMG, that car looks like fun

[dongle]

It sure looks like that plate would put a lot of added stress on the heads of the bolts that hold the hub on because the bolt is at 90* to matin surface of the hub...

Looks dangerous.

thats defintally a FWD only deal

I agree, no thanks.

Huh?

[dongle]

Huh?

Because both mating surfaces are supposed to be flat, the bolts are supposed to seat flush against the arm. This design does not compensate for this. Soooo the head of the bolt will not be flat it will be torque at the same degree that the plate is cut.

Eventually the head will snap off of the bold and the hub/rotor/wheel will shear off.

There you go, MS Paint diagram

[Falcone]

Sweet, I made something similar and am waiting for my rear coilovers to put them on. I'm sure glad I don't drive with a massive tampon up my as$.

[dongle]

Here's hoping that the intvitable happens!

[Falcone]

^^True that, thanks as$hole who has never run camber plates, and is full o sh!t, thumbs up to you cool man

[dongle]

whatever you say dude!

+1 the idea looks good. but its still not 100% done correctly. in order to compensate for the angle and stress of the head, 2 things can be done.....#1 cut the holes in the suspention with angles to match the kit, this would disfigure the rear ...... and i vote no. #2 you might need extended lugs but a 2nd mounting plate could be made with recessed holes for the bolt head and the correct angle to match the kit.u might have to slightly enlarge the holes in the suspention for higher angles of camber.....


my idea..im not as good as Drew with MS paint.......




you might even be able to just make some angle cut washers rather than a full plate...but the plat would make sure you have them all @ the correct position so non sheer off.

[POSTITSORGTFO]

whatever you say dude!

agreed the amount of fail is amazing
