Hello everyone, I found an issue with the camber of my right rear wheel during the wheel alignment, but I can't seem to locate the adjustment position for the rear wheel camber. Could you please tell me how to adjust the rear wheel camber? Thank you.

Camber is not adjustable. Try to adjust toe and then see what it shows.

Thank you for your help. We tried to adjust the toe-in, but the wheel camber didn't change. It's a new car and hasn't experienced any severe impacts. Could there be any other issues affecting the wheel camber, such as the shock absorbers or something else? :unsure:

I put a Bwoody kit on mine to dial it in after lowering some years ago. You can also look into camber bushings to save a little coin.

Are you going to leave your car stock?

I saw there is some dragracing in China, would you be thinking about going?

Are you working with a shop with experience for adjusting the alignment of cars?

-1.3 degree is within spec in the rear. -1.3 to -0.2 degree all ok on the rear camber FYI.

Hello Linda:

1、I want to keep this 'Last Call' as a collector's item, so I plan to leave it in stock condition.

2、Drag racing in China is still in its early stages and quite niche. It needs more time to develop, so I won't be participating for now. However, there are open track days at the Zhejiang Circuit near me, and I think I might give that a try when I have the chance.

3、In China, the Dodge Challenger Hellcat is extremely rare, which means there are very few specialized repair shops or experienced technicians. I think my best option is to try and find a shop with good wheel alignment equipment to restore the car's original settings.

There is drag racing in China, but it's still very niche. ;)

Hello everyone,
The issue with the rear wheel camber has been identified. The initial wheel alignment was performed with a machine that had not been calibrated, resulting in incorrect measurements. Yesterday, using the Hunter wheel alignment system, the values obtained were left rear: 1.05°, right rear: 1.22°. During the inspection, it was also discovered that the shock absorbers installed are Bilstein B6. This raises suspicion that the vehicle’s original shock absorbers may have been replaced before it entered the Chinese market. Could you confirm whether the original shock absorbers were Mopar components? Thank you!

Bilstein manufactures high quality parts. I've read that Bilstein manufactured for Dodge and depending on options chosen.

I woukd guess that they are standard on your "Last Call."

It's too early here for me to get confirmation right now. Usually there will be someone who knows for sure.

They have manufacturing plants in 6 different Countries.

Headquarters Ennepetal Germany, United Kingdom, USA, Romania, Mexico

And in your Country Shanghai China
