camber problems..
what suspension parts play a role in camber on the front wheels besides the upper control arms?
i have adjustable uca bolts set all the way back and my wheel is still tilted out..
like this ----> /_/
radius rods adjust caster, tie rods adjust toe
i have had someone tell me i may have a bent fork or wrong size? i dont see how the fork would effect camber. its attached directly to the lca. not to the knuckle at all.
bent knuckle perhaps?

no it is on stock shocks and springs.
it looks like the sobframe where the LCA connects to the frame has be repaired. new welds kind of sloppy.
this side does make a cv joint click sound when i turn.
is this my problem?
i dont see how the axle would seat properly if at all if the lower frame was so bent that it pulls my lower wheel in that much.
its the top ppart of the wheel that is pushed out.
the camber bolts fixed maybe 1-3mm but thats it. no help at all. i dont want to spend 130 on a adjustable ball joint.
it seems the right side suspension was replpaced with junk yard 96 accord parts.
i have since replaced UCA, LCA, Radius Rod, End Link, inner and out tie rod.
only thing i have not replaced is the strut and fork, which were also replaced.

You have a lot of problems with this car.
I would take your car to a body shop and have them do some measurements to see if something is bent.
In the manual that you can download, there are some measurements on page 3-17 that you may want to try.

do the upper control arms on the 98-02 accords fit 94-97?
i found these
CONTROL ARM ADJUSTABLE CAMBER KIT 98-02 HONDA ACCORD | eBay
but no such product for 94-97 accords

I think the arms are the same 4 vs 6 cyl, to your point the springs and maybe the struts are different.....I do not think the 98-02's will work.

I was thinking camber kits are useless for my problem. I need to fix positive camber not negative.
I have 96 v6 right strut and fork. Perhaps that's my problem?
I can remove the strut and spring assembly as a whole right? I don't want to have to compress the spring and such.
