Hello everyone,

I was fitting up my 201 with its borrowed winter wheels (they are from my 126 (8-hole's)... This would be the second year I've done this and something just occured to me. All the wheels fit fine and do not rub except for one. The rear passenger side. Sometime this past year--I do not recall when--I learned that my rear passenger side adjustable camber arm was broken...

So, correct me if I am wrong, the rear broken camber arm might be causing the wheel to rub? Its the only wheel doing it....

So if this is the problem, are rear camber arms repairable? I completely forgot to look into the thing when I learned it was broken.

As far as I gather its not like broken non-existant but broken to the point where the wheel can occasionally move back and forth if grabbed at 11 and 5 o'clock. I was able to do with once..but not since.

I believe the part that is broken is the "eye" part of it..nearest the wheel.....

I'm not 100% sure.. these probably wont help but some pics:

If anyone has any suggestions or ideas let me know.

Today, I'm going to take it up to the tire shop and get some snow tires put on the rear...I'll ask them up there if they know anything about the issue...

Much Appreciated,

Kris
