[DeTomaso] ???? - Installing offset bushings

[JDeRyke at aol.com]

You have enough offset bushings to do one pair of a-arms. When I did mine a 
decade ago, I installed the thick-flange bushings to the front of the upper 
a-arms (both sides). That gave about -4 degrees of camber vs a stock max of 
- 2.4. There's no reason you couldn't do only the lowers instead (thick 
flanges to the back, though), for about the same effect. I found this gave 
not-too heavy steering for a lady driver and plenty of camber increase for the 
8" wide front Campys we run. I did later machine 0.080" off the upper ball 
joint carrier for an additional 1/2 degree (making -4.6 total), but one can 
hardly feel the 1/2 degree extra. I don't recommend doing both uppers and 
lowers with offset bushings unless you have a wide-body car with 10" wide 
wheels, since that can move the car to -6 or so, which makes for too much steering 
effort IMHO. But I DO recommend using poly on all the other a-arms: upper & 
lower, front & back. FWIW- J DeRyke
