Hi Guys,
I have a front suspension question, when I bolted the front upper A arms tight to the frame the tires leaned out fairy severely on top. So I installed longer grade 8 bolts and with weight on the tires, backed the nuts off evenly until the tires were plumb with the floor. This leaves quite a gap (about an inch) between the A arms and the frame. I know that this is how caster and camber are adjusted, but I have never seen it require so many shims. I have noticed a few pictures posted of A&Cs with some sort of bar stock spacers being used to close the gap. Have any of you ran into this situation and if so what did you do? Thanks for any help you can give, Sam
