How to Measure Camber at home
ChannelThe Demented MonkeysDescription from the creator
The video is uglier than usual but at least it's short.
It shows how to measure camber at home using a plumb line and a ruler. A steel ruler would be more accurate but hey, it's not like I had to actually measure stuff in the video :)
Also RIP to my tripod, i used my drill case to hold the camera.
Anyway, tools needed:
Tape, Plumb line, ruler and Wolfram alpha if you suck at math like I do. (I actually have an excel file thanks to a friend, ask for it in the comment box!).
Here's the formula: TAN(θ) = (AD-BC)/AB where AD and BC are the distances between the outermost upper and lower parts of your rim and AB is the Rim diameter (convert it to mm if that's what your ruler scale is!)
Proper camber settings vary from car to car and your needs. High negative camber on a street car shortens tyre life. Track cars need to fulfill another set of requirements. Stanced cars are hideous, just go drown yourself in an oil barrel.
