Took my 59 Euro in for an alignment last week. The tech said the camber on the drivers front was out. Just took it apart and re-measured the offset and shims. Measured 6.5mm which is about right. The spindles are from a 60 bug and have the 2mm retainers/seals on them so the shims should total 8 top and bottom. Should there be O rings as well? Anyway everything checks out good so not sure what the issue is. I made sure the link pins were tight before taking it to the shop. Any ideas? Thanks Bruce
