The only way you have anything real camber up front is if you put the knuckles on the wrong sides. Besides that there will be a tiny out of slop in the font components but nothing abnormal if you assembled corrctly.

FYI 7.5mm difference from top to bottom is a lot more than 4° of camber

Everything seems in place. I've sold the camber gauge with the drifter, I measured the 4º with an android app but tried elsewhere to see if it was working fine.



The method I've used to get those "7,5mm" was a bit sketchy and actually it is more :



(blue line has 120mm and 4º)





They are Axial BF Goodrich, almost 120mm tall. Every degree of camber changes a lot on the top of the tire

Have you measured the angle without a tire on the wheel? If there’s any camber the outside of the rim will not touch on a level surface.

Hmmmm...

Just a thought.

On road cars, race buggys/trucks, all require setup boards and various tools for setting toe/camber ect...

Crawler guys tend to use the method of T.L.A.R. Or That looks about right...

I have never measured toe or camber on a single crawler I own, and I doubt many guys here have.

Good idea! you guys can see that there's a noticeable amount of camber. I can't really check but I'm starting to think that the axle housing is slightly bent.
