Addendum
1: Orientation of components
To
ensure that both the camber and spacer shims are installed in the proper
orientation, refer to Figure 1.
Figure 1: The dogbone pieces need to go behind
the control arm bracket with the arrow mark facing up and towards the
outside of the car. The camber shims go on the outside of the control
arm bracket with the L or R mark (depending
on the side you are working on) also facing up and towards the outside
of the car. The spacer shim will then need to go on the outside of the
camber shim.
Addendum 2: Parking brake cable tension
With some Scions,
stacking the camber and spacer shims may put the parking brake cable
under excess tension, to the point where it will not work correctly
anymore. Before finishing the installation, make sure that the parking
brake is still working normally. If there is any problem, or if the
cable is under excess tension, undo the 10mm nut (Figure 3A
in accompanying installation instructions) and let the bracket hang
free from the stud. In a very few cases, the cable may still need additional
slack. This can be achieved by flipping it to the other side of the
ABS sensor cable bracket (bracket seen above Figure 3A). Make
sure the parking brake is working correctly and can prevent the rear
wheels from moving before completing installation.
