Dana 50 Camber

I went to adjust the Camber on my Dana 50 (95 F250) and I'm puzzled. Does the adjuster take a special wrench to turn? How do you get it past the locking piece? It's different than the D35 I'm used to doing. RB

The factory caster/camber slugs are NOT adjustable. They are a set degree. In order to change the caster/camber you need to buy a different degree slug(cheaper) or buy adjustable slugs(more money). If you plan on keeping your truck for any amount of time i would buy adjustable slugs so you can change the settings without having to buy news slugs again

Are they dealer only or can they be bought from a parts store?

Any good parts store will have them(or able to get them) But do you have a way to measure the camber/caster? If not you are waisting your time
