HINT:

Try to adjust the camber to the center of the specified val-
ue.

Adjusting value for the set bolts is 6' - 30' (0.1° - 0.5°).
If the camber is not within the specified value, using the follow-
ing table, estimate how much additional camber adjustment will
be required, and select the camber adjusting bolt.
