71 satellite front suspension help please

[hank the yank]

Hi I have just re bushed my front end and have a couple of questions and would be grateful if someone could give me some advice.

Should I leave the uca camber bolts loose and the lca nut that goes through the k member loose and then adjust the ride height then tighten all the bolts up only so there is not to much stress on the new bushes?

Many thanks
Rory

I just redid all the bushings too and I measured it at ride height before I disassembled it from the upper control arm to the top of the inner fender and just set it right back where was and then tighten all the bushings just seems right. I would say yes it's a good idea.

Yep just snug till you get it aligned where you want it.Adjusting ride heighth can affect the camber.So you may need to readjust anyway.

Hi has anyone else noticed when you reverse your car up the front wheel camber goes in at the top!?!? But when driven or rolled forward it sits straight. Any thoughts if this is normal only because I have not noticed it before.

Cheers
