I did exaclty what Rudi suggested 15 years ago. I can now get up to 3d if needed. Took 15 minutes to do & cost nothing. I think that a strut brace is a must though as it ties it all together nicely.

geez i always had the opposite problem of too much neg camber on the front till i got a topline camber+ kit

and agree with jak, if your cornering harder than a grandma you cant beat a strut brace, even the most solid unmolested babied supers get tower flex

its was probably due to my ride height being low but at a 5" drop with stock camber adjusters maxxed out i couldnt get less than 3.5 degrees
wore out brand new tyres in 5000kms


now ive raised it abit and gone with the camber+ kit its around 1.5degrees which seems to be a good happy medium
