Velocity Wish Bone alignment
Built my rear suspension up today.....rear right lined up correctly but the rear left camber adjuster was offset to the rear of the hub by about 5 or
so mm. I was able to get it in but has anyone else experieneced this?

Yes, same problem both sides, in different directions if I remember correctly.
I found it easier to fit the lower wishbone bolts last 'cos that allowed more flex to pull things together.
I spoke to Grant (remember Grant). He said it wasn't excessive but to keep an eye on the bushes to see they don't ooze out under the
pressure I suppose. That was over a year ago and I don't see any distortion in the bushes and the susspension moves freely enough. The car
isn't running but it has been sitting quite happily on it's wheels since then.
The major annoyance is that it's a pain if you want to take the diff out - you have the struggle to force it all back in all over again.
To sum up it would be nice if everything just popped into place but the slight radial missalignment is not a problem. the wheels still point in the
right dirrection.
