Sierra rear camber shims
I don't know if these are the right thing to correct my camber on the back of my tiger cat e1, as it has the full sierra sub frame in the back
the camber is out and have heard that shims can be bought to correct this issue. Does anybody know where i can get a set or if this isn't the
thing to get advice me on a course of action to resolve the camber issue?

When I was setting up mine, all I did was get some shim metal (cannot remember what thickness, but it comes in a wide range of sizes) and make some
spacer washers with it. The upright mounting holes are fairly close to the centre line of the hub so you don't need much to make a relatively
big difference to the tracking and to centre the thrust.
I used laser pens fastened to a bit of wood and fixed to the wheel rims to work out how much I needed and to check adjustment. Overall, it was less
than the thickness of a standard washer so I'm not worried about not using a whole shim plate.

Sorry rusty they are a machined plate to correct both camber and toe in on the sierra beam so woulld not be that suitable for your application.

Rusty - I did this on my Indy to correct the rear toe as there was no adjustment via the wishbones. I sourced a range of shim washers from
http://www.namrick.co.uk/. I can't see them listed on the site so you might have to call/email them -
they're very helpful.
