bigo1966 Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Im about to buy a used 4" AA lift. I was wondering how people have fixed the camber issues this lift kit produces. It seems to me if i hack the strut spacers shift them over x amount of inches it should fix the problem. I know people have done it and it worked fine. I guess im trying to get a # in inches to shift the parts then reweld. Thanks Orion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Orion I have lifted all of my subarus past and present the same way that sjr does and never had any serious camber issues or much tire wear so I never really saw the need to alter the strut block:-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigo1966 Posted September 29, 2008 Author Share Posted September 29, 2008 Ive heard of a few people stating that the 4" AA lift produces camber issues. I havent heard it for the SJR lifts. No bit deal, i just want to starighten them out if possible. I dont really like increasing tire wear on 500 bucks in tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott in Bellingham Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 the strut block should sit at a 12 degree angle , so on a 4" lift the hole difference from top to bottom should be 27/32 inch . set the block on the table and take a square to it and measure in and thats what the difference should be from top hole to bottom hole Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
