Evening all, I have a problem which i'm sure must be simple but is managing to beat me! My chassis (2007 Alonso) absolutely refuses to laser up right even though i'v JUST had it fully straightened at paul carr's and both kingpins and stub axles (25mm) appear to be perfectly straight (i changed a slightly bent kingpin when i thought that was the problem and infact its now worse) The toe is not a problem just the camber, its high on one side and low on the other, totalling about or 6mm out. I'v had two sets of lasers on it and both read the same. The spacers between the caster/camber adjusters are the same both side. When the track rods are disconnected and the stubs are independent in the yokes, they are 'Lumpy' as they move, one more so than the other, but the caster/camber adjusters slide up and down the kingpins easily so they seem fine. One of the stubs rattles where it appears that there is a 'spacer' of sorts or 'sleeve' between the two bearings and it has come loose but that doesnt seem to be causing any play once the stub is on and tightened up?! ANY IDEAS?! lol
