frst scrubbing and odd camber
Doing amates fiesta rs turbo at mo.
Basicly, it scrubs on the front, badly, and the front wheels have alot of camber. To thepoint that the top mounts are sitting pissed (there poly)
It's on standard wheels with correct tires, and only lowered 30 on spax shocks and springs (brand new)
It's the top of the wheel catching the arch, but seems to sit very wide amd overly cambered on the front compared to others I've had.
It's got pattern front wishbones so thinking these could be wrong ?
Hope you can help before bite the bullet and get some gen Ford front arms (expensive)

It'll be the lower arms for sure. There are a fwe different types. Ask the question or do a search on Fiestaturbo.com as someone on there will be able to show you the difference.

Had a similar problem on my RS1800. Was supplied the wrong bottom arms but once swapped problem solved. You could see on the ones that were wrong the bottom ball joint was sticking out further from inbetween the main body of the arm.

Bottom arms I virtualy guarantee it. The FRST wishbones are pretty unique and most pattern companies don't list the FRST so you often get given XR2i arms which are not the same. Pattern arms are usually pretty awfull. Get to Fords for genuine FRST arms at about £60 a pop.
