front end alignment
found a couple threads from a couple yrs ago, but not my issue. i dont recall seeing an issue with my 2022 i40 when i got it, but since then i put 215/40/12 tire and wheel combo on it and now it appears to have a pretty good negative camber in the front end. Dont see any adj points that would address this particular issue unless i missed it. I do see adjustments for Toe on steering shafts but nothing on spindle area. any thoughts, thanks.

Re: front end alignment
You just loosen the nut on the upper shock mount then rotate the bolt head side right or left and the camber will adjust in the same respective direction (in my experience).

Re: front end alignment
Lord what a difference, just got around to alignment. Helps a little if you take some weight off front end. While I was down there, I put some grease in the spindles, actually a half a tube through grease gun. Y'all may want to check yours, doesn't seem like nearly enough from factory. Sorry, picture is upside down. That's the bolt that you use to adjust the front end camber

Re: front end alignment
Thanks for the pic and instructions.
What did you set the camber to? I forgot to check what the factory camber was before adding 2" spacers. I can visually tell the fronts are cambered out now, thinking I'll set them at maybe 1 deg in to start unless someone has better recommendation. Rears look about neutral. |

Re: front end alignment
If either of you two are feeling helpful, you should take pictures and make a how-to thread for other cart-noobs. It would be a good sticky too.
Personally, I've barely ever messed with alignment stuff and am a be nervous to do it out of ignorance. I'd love some pics and things to learn from. |
