Re: [T3] mods


Gary=> camber compensator ... What is
=> that, and what does it do?

It's essentially a transverse leaf spring slung under the swing axles, with
the strong attachment at the center. In a forceful  turn it helps control
rear-end body roll and prevent wheel tucking, a dangerous aspect of the
independent swing-axle design in extreme situations.
