My 87 740 was hit in the right front and the drivers side wheel has been pushed in towards the spring/strut causing it to rub slightly on the upper strut. I have read in the FAQ that fixing this might be done by an adjustment at the location where the suspension attaches inside the engine compartment. I can drive the car and it only needs a slight adjustment to the camber. It's a possibility that the strut is bent slightly but I want to try to adjust the camber before I pull the spring and strut out. I am a little confused about the adjustment to the camber described in the FAQ. I need a little help with the correct procedure on how to pull my front wheel out from the top to get negative camber corrected. The tire leans in toward the wheel well at the top. thanks
