Default J&M Camber plates

Installed J&M camber plates. I would like to set for negative camber (1-2 degrees). When I go to adjust the shock and it will only move from the center of adjustment hole to positive camber. (The stud will only move from the center of the hole to the side toward fender.) I did install with notch on engine side.
Is this correct or did I install incorrectly.

It's been a while since I installed mine but I think the notch goes towards fender. I'll check in a bit and let you know.

If it is like the strut mounts, the notch points out away from the engine.

Our camber plates are an offset design so they can be installed to increase your negative camber or decrease your negative camber. If they are installed so the strut will only move toward the fender it sounds like you have them installed on what we call a street setting. Just rotate the camber plates 180 degrees and you have them on the race setting allowing you more negative camber.

Thanks it worked. That's what I get for not reading instructions
