Greetings,
I am in the final process of re-attaching my re-built bogie to the frame.
As the bogie has all new/reamed bushings and pins, along with the frame being cleaned and painted, most likely means that the original shim count is no longer meaningful.
In order to get the initial camber as close as possible, prior to "sliding" it all back in, I was curios if anyone has ever done a rear wheel camber measurement with the rear wheels un-weighted and weighted?
I realize there are many variables that can't be taken into account, that would effect the rear wheel camber settings, but just looking for some general idea how much the camber will change from no weight to weighted wheels - For sake of argument/example, say several individuals have done this and the range is (light GMC > heavy GMC) between .6 degrees and .8 degrees.
Anyway, just looking to get the initial un-weighted camber as close as possible.
Thanks for any input/thoughts you may have,
Carl P.
