Ingalls 26126 - Manual

Installation Instructions
1. Determine the degree of change needed to correct alignment.
2. Disassemble front wheel, hub, brake assembly and backing
plate. Mark the top of the spindle to avoid camber changes
during reassembly due to a slightly bent spindle. Remove the
spindle from the steering knuckle. Clean all surfaces
thoroughly.
3. Locate the notch of the shim for the proper degree of change
needed. Place that notch at twelve (12) O'clock for positive
camber and at six (6) O'clock for negative camber.
4. Reassemble the brake assembly, hub and wheel and adjust
toe to specifications.
Important Notes: The webs of the shim between the bolt slots will
occasionally interfere with the steering knuckle bolt heads or
studs, preventing the desired notch from being set at exactly
twelve or six O'clock. When this occurs you need to simply flip the
plate in the following manner.
1.
Position the camber plate against the spindle with the desired
notch for proper alignment at twelve or six.
2. Mark the location of the 1-1/2° notch on the outside edge of
the spindle.
3. Flip the camber plate over on its back, keeping the 1-1/2°
notch lined up with the mark on spindle. Although the desired
alignment notch will no longer be at the original twelve or
six O'clock position, the proper camber adjustment will remain
the same.
Due to the thickness of the shim, longer spindle mounting bolts
may be required for reassembly. If so use 3/8"x1-1/2" grade eight
bolts. If necessary, grind off bolts for hub clearance.
