Camber adjustment?

[-db]

Is there a way to adjust the camber? The left wheel looks to have negative camber, while the right side has positive.

I would like to get them both slightly negative.

Yes there is, all you need to do is adjust the tie rod ends. Make it so one of them pulls in more and the other pushes out.

^^ what????
If you have stock a-arms then no, you can't adjust the camber. If one looks like its got negative camber and the other one has positive, then something is bent in your front end

That's Toe adjustment.

Is there info any where with the stock measurements so I can try and find whats bent if I can't easily see anything with a visual inspection.

Here's pics of it. Where should I be looking for a possible bend?

Anyone around SW-MI that may have an "alignment rack" that we could put it on be be sure and possibly fix the problem?

Its prably the arms that your aarms are attached to that hook them to your wheel hub, I can't think of the name of them, it looks like the left sides bent

My mistake.....All I just told you how to do was adjust the toe in or toe out of your front tires.

I would guess that you've got a bent spindle. Has the blaster even landed on its side? I was riding a wheelie on my old blaster and I ended up flopping it on its side and it bent one of the spindles. Just my guess?

I have no idea as I have only owned it a couple weeks.

I'll take a look at those. I also need to look at where the upper a-arm attaches to the frame. I didn't look at that part either. I just looked at the bottom of the frame.
