Re: my 57 revitalized
Just some suggestions. You may want to look at the position of the lower control arm before doing anything to the uppers. The ideal lower control arm position puts the outer ball joint between 1/2" below to 1/2" above the inner bushing height measured from the floor at ride height. This also puts the spring at the 11" approximate compressed length at ride height. The upper control arm location can be deceiving with the inner shaft set in at 7 degrees of anti dive angle. Just look at the upper ball joint position and then know that it should be positioned so that camber should change the least when the control arm position is right. Hope you can get what I am trying to show here. A street car does not have much camber gain on compression or loss on rebound like a circle track car does. Upper should be parallel to lower or only slightly higher at ball joint. Let us know what you have at your current ride height.
