Camber adjuster inserts
flak monkey - 2/6/11 at 02:59 PM

I am about to do a run of camber adjuster inserts. These are steel ones rather than the cheese like aluminium ones various other places sell. They are directly interchangeable.

21.75mm OD and a 64mm long plain section with a 24mm (or 1" depending on material) hex and M18x1.5 thread.

Basically they fit inside a 25mm x 1.5mm top tube on the wishbone. And will fit the GTS and Rally design wishbones.

£22 per pair delivered in the UK.

yes please if i could have two sets....

could I make a suggestion, that instead off the large nut to adjust

the end is closed with a 17mm or 19mm hex head on it.

would make it so much easier to adjust with socket and ratchet...


there is probably some really good reason why this cant be done

obviously I appreciate it would need a collar instead of the original large hex head to stop it pulling through.

You can get a 24mm or 1" socket on these, I make the hex longer than the aluminium ones to make it a lot easier

Making them with a smaller hex would require welding on a piece of hex bar, and it just costs too much to make them viable to be honest. These are made from a solid piece of hex bar.

Thanks Gavin.

Hi there,

Does anyone know if Flak is still making these? Or if anyone has some to sell? I've U2U'd Flak Monkey but no reply

Cheers,
Chris

I've seen them, £12.50, but they're aluminium so just as likely to break as the originals.

I'll try to U2U Flak Monkey again, I didn't hear from him after Bonneville
