Is it true that the wheels camber when you drop a bug? can one prevent this?

I have found that the best way to drop a bug and then slam it is to take it to the top of a parkade and drive it off the roof giving you that dropped effect after which you'll have to slam the doors to get them closed.....

The best way is to fit 2 front adjusters which I can supply and fit if you do not have the knowledge
The front one can go rather low but the back if you go to low the wheels lay alot to the inner at the top negative camber

Here is a pic of a slammed bug, Check the rear... cannot be avoided unless you have IRS suspension.
Where are you planning on driving a slammed vehicle?

I think it looks ugly.I tastefull drop looks cool,but a slammed bug looks stoopid!

Like they say,taste differs.

if thats the look you going for you are going to have to fit a narrowed beam aswell , and that has problems too, it reduces the cars turning circle .
I too like that look and thats the route im taking i can live with the drawbacks

Courrier to JHB

Tristan will get a price tomorrow and PM you with a Price

You can go relatively low with them When I weld them in then I turn them to the center Adjustment and turn the whole adjuster in a lower direction before welding it in
So when you have it assembeld it can be adjusted up or down
