Hey, I lowered my car on stock coil-overs and noticed that the rear camber is a bit too negative compared to front and my liking. After measuring, it's -2.2. I would like to get it back to correct spec. After doing some research here, it looks like the suggested solution was to use camber shims. Meanwhile, I had a call with the dealership and they said that there's special bolt that can be used to adjust camber as well. Questions: - are both ways of adjusting camber correct? - some threads mention "washers" and "camber shims" simultaneously - are camber shims a special construction or different from a washer? I've seen Hill Engineering to offer something that looks like a "washer", with different thickness. I want to do my research before hitting an alignement shop. There's not many specialised Ferrari mechanics around where I am located, so I'd rather take their hardware for measurements and provide them with suggestions on how to adjust it.
You may need something similar to these as when the bolt is rotated the cam on the bolt changes the camber angle. https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Pair-Left-Right-Rear-Camber-Kit-2-75-Free-Shipping/253924215375?hash=item3b1f100a4f:g:qoYAAOSwoKBf6ntL
Ferrari only used camber eccentrics on a few models (456, 550, 575) before going back to shims on the 612 and all V8s have used shims unless something changed recently.
Confirmed. I put washers on top mount 1.8mm and it changed camber a bit (4mm outwards). I am yet to visit a professional alignment shop to redo the whole procedure, but I can confirm this is the way to go. Wish there was equation of how much washers you need to put for certain angle - I know I am -2.12 right now, hate round tripping alignment shop and my mechanic back and forth.
Be carful the alignment clamps that attaches to the wheels does not damage the finish. This does happen often. The shop I go to uses a touchless system off the hub called Tru Align. It's more accurate of the hub and does not touch the wheel
