Does this look right? ke25 with XT130 struts & LCAs

[Nicke25]

Hi Everybody, I'll be doing the Pug/Hilux/Corona brake upgrade on my KE25. After a quick play with the struts I found that the Rolla Lower Control Arm was slightly shorter than the supplied corona LCA. I bolted it on to see how it looked anyway, and I now have positive camber. Will this even out once the weight (engine, trans etc) is back in the car, or do I need different longer LCAs?
I read through about fifty pages of the guides that are on here and everyone seems to use the rona LCAs.
Thanks

you need the longer Corona arms - even if you somewhat negate the positive camber when loaded up with motor/box, outside wheels (during cornering) will get positive camber as the weight shifts to the inside wheel and the car will be like a gokart to drive.

Longer Corona arms? From which model, I thought the XT130 were the right ones???

sorry, i read it as you had put the Corolla LCAs on - so ignore what i said - my bad.

Sorry - the Corolla arms were longer than the corona arms, so thats why I now have positive camber with the shorter corona arms. I think I mixed that up when I did the first post - Damn you carlton united breweries. Anyway, does anyone know what the longest of that style lower control arm is? I can find pics of Celicas and cressidas etc but no actual specs.

why can you not run the rolla LCA? some one told me a longer LCA for a KE2* but i forget haha

sigma with the bushes swapped to rolla one, i think.
though they might be to long then, like in a KE70.

ive got datto 180b struts in my ke20 but with the same issue, i was just goin to make my own LCA and use the datsun bolt on ball joint at the end.
