How to Solve Uneven Rear Wheel Camber?
2 Answers
Uneven rear wheel camber issues can generally be resolved by replacing the chassis suspension components. Here are the relevant details: 1. The most common cause of steering pull is incorrect four-wheel alignment angles, so a four-wheel alignment correction is recommended. 2. Check if the tire pressure on both sides differs significantly, as large pressure differences can cause the vehicle to pull while rolling. 3. Uneven damping on both sides of the front shock absorber springs can be assessed by pressing or removing and comparing them to determine their condition. 4. A failed front shock absorber can cause uneven suspension height and force distribution during driving. 5. Brake drag on a single wheel, where the brake does not release properly after pressing the pedal, continuously applies resistance to the wheel. 6. It is advisable to visit a professional 4S shop to replace rear suspension components for a solution.
I encountered this issue last time as well. It wasn't until I took it to the 4S shop for inspection that I found out it was a rear suspension problem. The technician said common causes include: deformed suspension links, deteriorated rubber bushings, or possibly deformed knuckle bushings. The most frustrating part is that such issues require a wheel alignment to confirm. During adjustment, they need to use eccentric bolts or replace adjustable links, and the key is to ensure the left and right parameters are set consistently. If the car body is deformed or accident repairs weren't done properly, the workload increases significantly - they might even need to remove the rear axle for correction or perform cutting/welding to adjust mounting holes. By the way, in severe cases, it can cause tire wear and make the steering wheel shake violently at high speeds. Early detection and treatment is definitely the right approach.
