ABSTRACT:
A hand tool adjusts the camber of a wheel assembly on a front-end drive vehicle including a vertically disposed spring-loaded strut portion located between a partition or fender apron and a front-wheel. The tool includes an elongated handle section, a fulcrum section and a wheel assembly contacting section. The wheel assembly contacting section includes a strut portion bearing surface transversely disposed at an outer end of a bearing surface support which projects outwardly from a first side and at one end of the fulcrum section. The elongated handle section is connected to the fulcrum section at a location laterally spaced from the bearing surface support and projects outwardly from the first side of the fulcrum section. The handle, fulcrum and wheel assembly contacting sections are substantially disposed in a common plane. The fulcrum section includes a fulcrum bearing surface on a second side of the fulcrum section opposite the first side thereof. The fulcrum bearing surface is substantially flat along the second side and effective to abut a partition member or fender apron disposed between the engine compartment and the wheel assembly in a front-end drive vehicle.
