yep your assumption is correct my ra23. the problem is that the passenger side reads +0.675 and the drivers side is -0.675 this is after lowering it on some kings springs. I assume that by lowering the car it would increase the negative camber correct?

yet the car still has positive camber on the passenger side. Because the old lady i bought it from damaged the passeneger side i assume that the strut or some other part of the car would be damaged.

when i was putting in the front springs the ball joints seemed ok and the boots looked quite new as were the bushes. (i.e rubber was clean and un perished by my untrained eye). Would it be more likely that my ball joint is damaged rather than my strut?

Yes the shocks are original as far as i can see and i am planning to replace these with koni yellows and at the same time all of the bushes.

the squeeking sounds sound like they are comming from the passenger side only and it sounds like creaking and pinging of the spring. Im not sure where the radius rod is Embarassed is it the part that joins onto the lower arm and can be adjusted where it meets the chasie rails?

What do you think of king springs? they seem a bit stiff to me but i know that the shock is not controlling them properly. if i get some koni yellows do u think the ride will be acceptable? any other susgestions for spring/shock combos? i dont want to spend more than 400 a corner and i would like a relitavly comfortable ride (i know its hard to have both comfort and handleing without lots of work but i can try Smile )

thanks Clinton (is that your correct name?)
