C4 IRS Camber Bar Question

[orphancars]

After taking a couple months out of car building to indulge in the purchase of a lathe and subsequent rewiring of shop. installing a rotary converter for 3-phase, and rehabbing a 50 year old lathe, I'm back into the suspension on the car.....

The question is for those folks that have done a camber sweep of a C4 IRS under full compression and rebound -- should the camber change "a bunch??" I'm seeing 0* at ride height, about 1/2 to 3/4* positive @ full extension, and about 1 to 1.5* negative @ full compression. Is that right/normal??

I don't have the trailing arms mounted, so this was just with the toe arm and the camber bar installed, the bottom of the knuckle resting on a bottle jack. I plan on getting the trailing arm brackets done in the next couple days. Also, the inboard mount for the camber bar is just tacked in place -- I did that just so I could find the best location for it (ie., minimal camber change) before I fully welded it into place.

Also, I don't have the coilover mounted yet -- will that make a difference?


thanks in advance,
