Hi I am a manager at a private auto repair faculity and have a customer with a mini that I wants to adjust the camber settings. I have searched all my software and can find no information on adjusting camber. Is there camber adjustment on these vehicles and if so what is the procedure for adjustment. Thanks for any help.

I know for a fact that the rear can't be adjusted and I believe this applies to the front too. The only way are a set of camber plates in the front and camber control arms in the rear.

Yep, no adjustment on the MINI except for front toe.

It takes camber plates up front and control arms in the back to make it adjustable. Can't even do the eccentric crash bolt trick in the front like most other cars, the spindle mounting design doesn't allow it.

Stock MINIs cannot adjust rear camber.

The best and easiest way to adjust rear camber in a MINI is by using adjustable rear control arms (lower pair).
Rough cost is about $240 to $298+ for parts.

Or for a set of four lightweight rear control arms for $355 consider these from RDR

Or buy the RDR ones directly from them for $335... hey, $20 is $20 ya know...

 

I didnt think so! Thanks alot

according to the tis, the rear toe can be adjusted by loosening the front attach point of the rear "trailing" arm.
