Did the first alignment last night from the sideways shunt in gravel at the Runoff thanks to Mr Firebird (see other post for the video). I've lost LHS camber adjustment range of more than a degree in back and about 1/2 degree up front. It went in hard enough that the rim bead seat was full of trapped pea gravel.

I figure someone in R&C has been there and done that. Any ideas on which links to start replacing first? Nothing is visually bent, so I assume it's a bit of trial and error at this point.

 

I've packed tire beads full of gravel to the point where gravel/mud was actually inside the rim causing an imbalance but never bent anything.

Useless trivia but it will bump your post up to the top where the guys that hit shit can see it

 

Lower front arm at the ball joint was tweaked, and the subframe may have shifted too. I had custom upper front arms and the Heim joint there snapped, so a stock arm could get tweaked there too. One steering tie-rod was bent also, but this shouldn't affect camber. Had no problem with the rear.

 

Thanks, that helps with the front.

Who's bent the rear?

 

I swiped the passenger side once with the usual rock and dirt wedged within the beads. A rock got pinched between the fender and tire as the suspension compressed denting the fender from underneath. I haven't bothered to put it up the rack since it's still tracks straight. I'm sure the settings has budged. I've heard cases where the sub-frame can sometime shift causing asymmetrical settings. You want to look into that since you can't visually see any arm deformations. You can check what position your steering wheel sets from lock to lock and see if the sub-frame has shifted.
