Camber after lift install
Hey guys quick question. I recently put a jakes 6in lift kit on my G8. While standing about 25 or so feet away from the front the camber looks like the tops are really in compared to the bottom. On the Jakes A arm there is another shock mount closer to the top, would this help? Has anyone come across this?

Re: Camber after lift install
I put a Jakes 6 inch lift kit on my G8. Now the tops of the tires are closer to each other than the bottom of the tires. Like this / \. On the A arm there are 4 shock mount holes. Instructions said to use the 2nd from top hole. I was wondering if I used the top hole would it help? Seems like it would push the A arm down more and maybe straighten out the wheel camber.

Re: Camber after lift install
I'm on my first G8 and working on the suspension as well. Service Manual will be here this week and I'll share. IMHO I'd try another one of the mounting holes until I got that A-arm fairly straight.

Re: Camber after lift install
I know nothing about a G8 but I would assume the following based on my experience with a G22 .
Spindle lift .... You have a bad strut or worn bushing or something bent. Long arm .... You can adjust the camber by the heim joints at the ends of the a arms by turning the top or bottom in or out to adjust it as needed. |
