There’s a GMT400 in there somewhere.

I wasn’t able to get a picture, but my truck isn’t the only 400 with rear camber. I saw one today with noticeable rear camber on both sides except his was a solid axle… How he achieved that is beyond me lol. Maybe a big enough jump to bend the axle tubes, it was a high schooler driving it after all.

Plastic breaks and aluminum corrodes and what is steel will still rust.....

You're not wrong HotWheels, but the modern vehicles depend so much more on electronics, which can fail and potentially become unavailable, where the older, more mechanical ones can potentially continue to be serviced. It's all relative, of course, and I'm a late adopter of everything, so maybe I'll change my mind in the future. For the time being though, my vote would be with the 400.

Aha, you got caught in the old "the bigger the shed, the less stuff you have to get rid of" trap. Reguardless of the floor size of your shed, the amount of work space is always remains constant as in "next to nothing".

Except there’s no instructions because I refuse to dig out the giant FSM :facepalm:

You know it’s bad when you start breaking out the folding picnic tables.

Made a haul to the local landfill. I love this truck.

Guys who road raced early RX-7s would use a cutoff wheel to cut the axle tubes except for about an inch at the very bottom. Then they'd tweak the tube closed at the top and weld it. It would give about 2-3° of rear camber and the axles were springy enough to handle the flex. You could probably get away with it with a 10 bolt.

My 93 Camaro has about 3/32" of toe in and .5* negative camber in its stock axle. Heat/shrink/cool with a rosebud is all you need, and those numbers fit within factory spec.

I have seen small amounts of camber like that but the truck I saw yesterday was about 3 degrees negative. And it was lifted so I don’t think he did it on purpose for performance.
