C2 alignment question

[Randy S.]

I assume front end camber is adjusted with the Upper A Arm shims. Where is the adjustment for castor?

Castor is also adjusted with the upper A arm shims. Moving the shims from front to back, and vice versa will adjust the Castor.

Don,

I think I see. Adding equal shims to front and back changes the camber but adding shims to the front OR back A Arm rotates the top a arm relative to the bottom a arm thus changing castor.

Long Island Corvette catalog sheet 49 item 8 shows camber adjusting bolt. I can't seem to locate it on my 66 but it looks like it would be a "jacking" screw to facilitate adding shims.

Randy item #8 appears to be the upper "A" arm mounting bolts. The go through the frame into the upper inner shaft in the control arm
