Hotchkis 12425 Scion TC Sport Rear Camber Links - Manual (Page 4)

Tip:
Use a floor jack to elevate the suspension in order to line up the camber link end with the spindle
clevis.

Droop Clearance:
Since the camber link is designed for use with lowered tCs, the shape of the Hotchkis
arm is slightly different from the stock arm. For this reason, it is necessary to adjust the alignment bolt
so that the arm does not contact the subframe at full droop. Full droop is when the suspension is fully
extended, which is a situation scarcely experienced during normal driving conditions.
First thing to do is look underneath near the inner end of the camber link. Your objective is to adjust
(rotate) the alignment bolt to give a 1/16” gap between the camber arm and the frame. Once the gap is
achieved, tighten down the alignment bolt with a 19mm wrench or socket and a 17mm socket for it’s
corresponding nut.
10)
Once the outer and inner ends of the camber links are tightly bolted in, you can tighten the jam nuts on
the turnbuckle. Use a 1” open end wrench to hold the turnbuckle while you tighten each jam nut with a
large enough crescent wrench.
11)
It’s time to put the rear wheels back on. Jack the car up and remove the jack stands. Lower the jack to
drop the car onto it’s own wheels.
