I have noticed the camber angle on the rear suspension is fairly prenounced.Firstly is this normal and if not could it be due to the added weight of the full conversion. There is a remedy if it's not normal which are spring assistors. I fitted these years ago when towing a caravan where the nose weight pushed the rear of the car down too much.

Hi, just collected the wife's Ford Connect van from our MOT Garage and mentioned we had just purchased an Alphard and that I was a little concerned about the amount of Camber on the rear wheels, it appears they had been looking after an Alphard for several years. The manager said it was possible the camber angle could be adjusted, so I have arranged to drop in for them to have a "look". Will post their findings when I know.

It may be revolent if anyone wants to tow a caravan.

Somewhere on this Forum, if my memory serves me, is a technical list of the rear camber geometry.

Hopefully, if you search for it, perhaps try camber, you will find it and it ay be of some help.
