| Finally got some camber
Installed one of my first sets of -3 camber shims and some 10mm spacers today. 
It's one of some prototype sets I made up, if they work out Ok, may make some more.  |

I did use some OTG's for a little inspiration. didn't like their dogbones for the back side, so made plates. | |

But it's pretty spendy machining parts. It costs me 72 bucks for the four pieces (2 shims, 2 back plates). Quote:
