<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: Arial;">Ok I read something about this before but I just installed the <st1:place>essex</st1:place> lift on my rtv and it definitely has camber issues. Has anyone found a fix for this yet?</span></p>
 
What size/type tires are you running?</p>


Here's a thread where we discussed. I didn't re-read it but as I recall, taller tires negated the camber issue.</p>

Can you post a picture from the front of your RTV so we can see the degree of camber?</p>


I have the 2" lift kit and my tires are pretty much right on center.</p>
 
As I recall, there's no reason to remove the top nut.</p>


Are you using their directions or the ones I came up with?

The way I installed it is listed in this thread.</p>

Seems to me that if you have a hard cab the HD struts should compress enough for the lift kit but I guess not. I ended up just pulling the front blocks out and just using the shackles in the rear. It sits pretty level a little lower in the front but nothing to worry about. So if you want to lift your rtv either don't get the HD struts or see if you can just get the rear shackles.</span></p>
