  View original topic: Split Case Camber Compensator

Hi, I was wondering if anyone out there has a split case transmission that has a camber compensator on it?

I have an original EMPI one for the later tunnel transmission but the bracket is incorrect for the split case I have in my stock "57 Bug.[/quote]

If you have an original bracket that will fit a split case. please let me know.

I don't ever remember seeing one for a split case. I have one on my bus and it works. I guess the trick would be having it mount to
the center bolts in the case, or the torsion housing forks?

I have never seen one either but I do know that EMPI sold these in the late '50's. SOMEONE has to have one.

I've seen them at shows for sale. Not the bracket, the complete part.

What is this camber compensator yall are talking about?
Does it somehow correct the camber when the car is lowered? Or is it just a bar to keep the travel from getting to the point where the camber is out?

I reduces wheel tuck when the suspension rises.
