legacy Camber shims

[RMS]

what are your thoughts on the legacy .0009 negative Camber shims for the Chrysler 9 3/4 axle ?

[just me]

What's the point of them?

Interesting idea, they may work well w/ radials. If nothing else they would stand up the fronts a bit and eliminate some of the outside shoulder wear I'm seeing on my new superlugs.

Yes, very interesting.

RMS, where did you find those shims?

the shims showed up on my fb news feed they are made by http://www.legacypowerwagon.com/

switching from positive camber to negative is apparently "The secret to great driving early dodge trucks. 65mph one hand on the wheel." negative camber would also decrease under steer

I wouldn't bother with my truck. There doesn't seem much need on a vehicle that can only be coaxed to 45 MPH. And, since I don't have tire wear issues with mine and the stock tires, they wouldn't help. However, a 4.89 geared truck with a v8 and big wide tires, that could help.

Thanks, Robyn.

These shims might make sense for trucks that are driven primarily on hard surfaces, at higher than original design speeds, and/or equipped with a power steering conversion? I'm not sure I'd want it on a stock M37.
