I had been thinking about why the camber was so different with the engine cradle being the standard width and I don't know why it took me so long to realise that it is due to the top strut towers being closer together with the narrower 205 shell compared to the wider Sierra shell; therefore the struts lean in at the top.


Now I have slotted the cradle I am down from just over 3 deg neg to 2.4 but I did not pull the lower arms all the way in which I will now try and measure again (I bought camber, castor and tracking gauges in the end)


I am considering putting different solid adjustable top mounts in but I will need to weld in new strut tops to accept the fully adjustable ones that I got from Spoox motorsport. I will have a look at the viability of this and probably go for that as that would give me the ability to get the camber down to 1.5 deg neg.
