    Default Moore front camber on RT142

    I've heard the best way is to just install sigma lower control arms.
    Is it just as simple as that?
    And if i do this about how much camber will i have?
    Cheers guys. =]

    I've seen it done on a TE71, the result was stupid amounts of camber (at least 4 degrees) and wheel clearance issues.

    If it was me I'd install camber tops and if they don't offer enough adjustment get the struts bent.

    RT142 arm == 310mm
    Sigma arm == 340mm


    All the data is there, figure it out yourself.

    If you are planning a brake upgrade, xt130 struts will give you roughly 3 deg neg camber as they have a different strut angle to rt142 struts. Thats even with using standard camber tops and lower control arms.
