Default Adding camber on a mardave V12

Is there an easy way to add some camber at the front of the car?

Cheers

The standard VRX front end allows you to add camber. The silver wishbones are mounted on top of o-rings and there is a turnbuckle mounted between the wishbones. As long as you don't fully tighten the wishbones and squish the o-rings you can adjust the camber with the turnbuckle.

It works really well and works out the same on both side as long as you keep the distance from the top of the wishbone to the chassis the same on each side, ie same amount of squish on each o-ring.

I would go for kamtec for the ease of use just fit and forget.
The vrx one is good but it requires too much fine tuning for my liking

The kamtec one is ideal.

I'd also place a small rubber o ring between the chassis and the wishbone.

tighten the wishbone screws carefully and do each one a 1/4 turn at a time to ensure that you dont end up with them at different angles.
