Had my geometry done at the weekend by an independant garage who - after completing the job told me that "only Subaru" could adjust the camber settings.
Is this right ? Cant believe it if it is right.

So where in the Woking area can I get the camber settings done ?

Thanks

Ro.

hi...

that doesnt sound right at all. the way i understand it (and im sure someone will correct me if im wrong), front camber can be adjusted, but rear camber requires adjustable camber bolts to be adjusted (which the front already has... so just pick up another front set from a breakers yard).

dunno about the woking area but a trip to powerstation is always worth it if u can be bothered with the longish drive

RoShamBo,
you can also buy Rear Camber Bolts from Whiteline for the rear.

Adjusting camber is very easy to do. A special type of bolt is used with an adjustable offset. It is located behind the wheel bearing. The direction of the screw is along the length of the car.
