Good morning,
How do I adjust the rear camber? Is there a simple way to adjust the rear camber? Where can I find a good chart with instructions so that I am not wasting time just trying out different options?
 
Hi Glen, I'm guessing you are talking about the wheel camber on an earlier swing axle suspension. I never messed with those but what I've read you adjust the torsion bars so that with the normal load it will carry the wheels will be straight up and down, neutral camber. That gives you the most tire contact most of the time. Because your trike is probably lighter than a stock Beetle you will have to take some of the tension out of the torsion springs. With the books I have I couldn't find an easy quick way but I don't think it's that hard to do. Hope this helps.
