[QUOTE="Double0fox, post: 16408279, member: 51290"] So next on the list of never ending things to do was to address the strut tower openings. I know at some point I would need more negative Camber than I was able to get with the factory hole sizes. The strut nut was already making a witness mark on the inner diameter of the strut opening. I went ahead, and grabbed the fixture tool for Vorshlag, and a 2,3/4" hole saw, and went to work. If you look close you can see the witness mark from the nut. [ATTACH=full]1637027[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1637028[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1637029[/ATTACH] I tried to contain the most amount of chips as I could because I am lazy and don't want to clean up. I tapped a bag under the opening to catch anything. With the fixture plate in place, the plate almost catches all the chips from falling (until you unbolt it). I used a shop vac before I unbolted it, and nothing really fell below. When I went at breaking the sharp edges with the Dremel, that's when the bag became useful. [ATTACH=full]1637030[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1637031[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1637032[/ATTACH] Before breaking the sharp edges: [ATTACH=full]1637033[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1637034[/ATTACH] Before, and after: Before maxed out to the strut opening: [ATTACH=full]1637035[/ATTACH] Maxed out of the MM caster camber plate. [ATTACH=full]1637036[/ATTACH] I am doing a load of other things right now, and have not put the K-member back on yet. So no alignment, or max camber number yet, but will update when I get all that done. [/QUOTE]
