Front Camber & Caster

The front axle provides for combined camber and caster adjustment. Both wheel adjustments can be made together. Adjustments are made by means of eccentric bolts at the lower control arm bearing and brake support ball pin supporting joint. To adjust eccentric bolt on lower control arm bearing, loosen hex nut, then tighten hex nut while applying counter hold to eccentric bolt.
When increasing camber on eccentric bolt, caster will also increase. When decreasing camber, caster will also decrease.
To adjust supporting joint ball pin, loosen clamp and turn ball pin in supporting tube (ball pin is right hand threaded). Turning outward will increase caster, turning inward will decrease caster. When increasing caster, camber will decrease, when decreasing caster, camber will increase.
On 300E & TE w/4MATIC camber cannot be adjusted using the control arm eccentric bolts. Additional adjustment is available at the mounting of the strut to the steering knuckle.
