Camber Bushings
Unlike the standard McPherson struts, the Öhlins struts
features camber bushings that enable you to alter the
wheel camber. Three sets of bushings are included in
each set of shocks/struts.
The different bushings are marked with grooves, see table.
The set of camber bushing mounted standard has no
eccentricity, what regards the other two supplied kits, see
the table.
NOTE!
The camber angles are approximate and may vary from car
to car depending on the manufacturing tolerances of the sus-
pension parts and the pick-up points. Therefore please check
camber angle on each wheel carefully and adjust if neces-
sary.

Note that the camber bushing can be turned towards the wheel
and away from the wheel to get maximum camber angle
adjustability.
Set-up data
Setting up Your car, Gravel:
Measures ride height, camber
angles and toe, please see our
recommendation below.
Camber angles Gravel :
-0.5° to –1.5°
Ride heights: 385-390 mm meas-
ured vertically between wheel
centre and the highest position of
the wheel housing.
Toe in: 2mm
Compression click: 16 (from
closed position), usable range
approx. 5-25 clicks
Rebound click: 32 (from closed
position), usable range approx.
5-40 clicks
Setting up Your car, Tarmac:
Ride heights: 350-355 mm meas-

CAUTION!
If the ride heights of the car is set
lower than recommended on the
tarmac set up the full-extended
length of the shock needs to be
restricted. This due to the fact that
the spring will not be guided in its
end at the upper spring seat.
8
The chamber bushing that is fitted in the
strut gives approximately -0.5° (camber
angle). This angle may vary from car to
car, please measure the camber angle
on your car and change it if required us-
ing supplied camber bushings. See ta-
ble page 1, also see our recommended
set-up.

Choose a place for the reservoir mount-
ing bracket on the cross member, see
fig. Use supplied screws to fit the bracket
and place the reservoir in the bracket.
To secure the reservoir use supplied
hose clamp or tie-rap.
10
Clamp the reservoir hose to the wheel
housing and make sure that you have
clearance between the wheel and the
hose.
11
Before fitting the wheel make sure that
you have secured both the reservoir
hose and the brake line properly, so there
are clearances to wheels, brakes etc.
