[trangieboy]

I`m about to put all new poly bushes in the rear of my car.I have bought the camber and toe adjustable bushes.Which bush do i put on which ?? Does the inner bush adjust the camber or the toe ??

And can i jack both back wheels off the ground at the same time by putting the floor jack under the diff or will i damage the floor ?? And where do i put the stands ?? Under the sills ??

I always jack the car by the rear subframe. It's hard on the

subframe bushings, but the other option is to jack on

the sills, and they're non- replacable...

When fitting the adjustable SLOTTED setup from Ireland, the toe goes

on the outside, and the camber on the inside, simply because of access.

Also, you end up adjusting toe 1/16th, and camber a lot more. So it disrupts

the rear geometry less to move the inner point more:

you end up rotating the trailing arm around the outer CV joint,

which it doesn't mind so much.

I would THINK that the bushing version would be similar...

Yes, the differential is the proper jacking point, as it even says it in the Haynes manual. The Haynes manual says to put jackstands under the 'bodyframe members.' I'm not sure what that means specifically, but I always put a jackstand under each side of the rear subframe. On older cars, its usually too risky to ever trust the notch under the sills, since its probably rusty, and not that strong anyways. I still use them on occasion, but never like trusting them.

I don't know anything about the camber adjustments, so I can't help ya there.
