Thanks for advise.
The problem is we sheared one today and are racing tomorrow at Rye and don't think can get a replacement.
As we've not got a replacement I can't measure the before and after things like actual camber/castor angles.
I got hold of a pair of 7kart stubs and put them on and someone had some laser alignment gadgets, so we used these to set the camber to near zero - I ended up having to use a 1.5 (facing out) underneath rather than 0.5 that we had before for our setup, but it could well have been that our setup wasn't with a zero camber.
Had to change the track rods quite a lot to track it, but that's just down to the stub arms I presume. Also put 20mm extra spacing on inside as the 7kart stub is a fair bit shorter.
As best that I could compare the stubs they looked the same angles.
Unfortunately by the time I got this all done the rain had started so no chance to check it out properly to see what the setup was like.

I'll try them in the vice tonight and more accurately compare the stub angles.
