I have heard some good reports about castor/camber kits for VX's.... Is it worth doing to the VY...
Getting ready to put King springs and strut brace, not sure yet on the castor kit.

Lowered VYII SS wagon (FE2) by 30mm, installed camber kit & the alignment bloke was able to bring rear back to factory specs.
He said he wouldn't have been able to achieve that without the camber kit.

Forgot to say in my first thread that i meant front camber castor kit...
Any one know if the rear camber on the car can be adjusted stock? at all?
Co.'s such as Pedders and Kmac suspensions make camber correction kits for Commodores. I think that they are primarily designed for cars without Control Link rear ends (IRS Commodores up to VX Series I).
It would have been nice if the first IRS Commodores had the Control Link as did its Euro cousin. I drove a few VT wagons (company cars) and they seemed to give the inside edges of their rear tyres a hard time - these cars carried a reasonable load in the back. I understand that the rear camber kits are designed to help overcome this issue. Given that fleet costs are watched by accountants, perhaps the extra spend on a Control Link from day one would have been a good idea?
I would imagine that the camber correction kits would fit the VX II & VY with Control Link rear ends.
