VN 5.034 Camber and caster angles of the wheel pivot axis 1. Upper eccentric bolt; 2. Lower bolt securing the steering knuckle to the shock absorber strut; a. Wheel camber angle; b. Angle of longitudinal inclination of the wheel pivot axis; C. Front view; D Left view
The camber angle of the wheels is checked on a specialized optical stand.
The camber angle of the wheels is adjusted by rotating the upper eccentric bolt that secures the steering knuckle to the shock absorber strut.
