Chevrolet Corvette 1963 Repair & Tune-Up Manual page 270

INSTALLATION
Installation is the reverse of removal. Align
driveline components. To insure proper
alignment of the driveline, a clearance of
45mm±6 (1.77±.250 in.) must be main-
tained between the top of the beam to the
underbody and a clearance of 28mm ±6
(1.1 ± .250 in.) from the right side (passenger
side of vehicle) of the beam to the side wall.
Take these measurements directly above and
to the right of the propeller shaft dampener.
Torque all fasteners to specification.
NOTE: Do not over torque the bolts at-
taching the driveline beam to the transmis-
sion. Over torquing can damage the
transmission extension housing, bushing
and seal and result in fluid leakage.
Inadequate fluid level can damage the
transmission. Apply sealant to the mating
surfaces of the transmission extension
housing, differential carrier and beam.
Adjustments
CAMBER
The rear wheel camber adjustment is made
by rotating the eccentric cam and bolt assem-
bly that connects the strut rod to the differ-
ential carrier bracket, or at the inboard
mounting of the support rods on 1984 and
later models. Loosen the locknut and turn
the eccentric cam bolt until the correct
wheel camber angle is obtained. Secure the
locknut and toruqe to 55-77 ft. Ibs. (158-
213 ft. Ibs. on 1984 and later).
TOE-IN
Rear wheel toe-in is adjusted by the place-
ment of shims of different thickness on both
sides of the control arm pivot bushings. These
shims are available in Ve4 in.,
x
/32 in., in.,
