K legs

K legs

dadabashua1:
2004 models? I don't think k leg affect 2004 model year sir,its the earlier generation,04 uses only D.W suspension system on the rear pls

Dozieson:


My neighbour have used 2005 and it had k legs

dadabashua1:
2005 corolla has had K leg,should now tell someone that 05 corolla experience k leg? Bros 2004 crv doesn't experience the usual K leg,the one your neighbour had is the unusual one that can happen to ANY brand of car on Nigerian roads,CRV doesn't have the K-leg issues like accord simple and short, to shock you there is no brand of car I've not seen with K leg at one stage or the other,not quite long I saw 2009 Camry with K leg in Abuja sir.

Dozieson:


This is not k leg. Means you don't understand the meaning of k leg? Not talking about pulled legs.

My guy, how far? No forget our slang 'Irre'.

dadabashua1:
not everyone is a car enthusiastic like you and me,alot of average or should I say people with little knowledge about cars referes to the leg pull as K leg,I've met them on a countless occasions sir just type honda k-leg issues on Google and see if I'm right or wrong..hehehehe

Dozieson:


Lol o get you. But anyone looking to get a car should try and understand all related slangs

calculation:
There is K-leg in all Honda CRV from 1st generation to the last generation. I am in charge of one and there is K-leg at the rear wheel called negative camber, but it was an easy fix( ask me if you want to know ). See the attached pix for your understanding.

Conner44:


What was the easy fix for your camber issue?

Op the 2004 crv is a nice, spacious and strong vehicle. Look out for rust make sure there is no check engine light on the instrument cluster.

calculation:

It is done through modification of the arm

Conner44:


There are up to five different arms per wheel hub. Do you remember the exact one that was modified?

Take a close look at the picture below and pick its number out from there. I have a guess but want to be very sure.

calculation:
Image shown is for honda Accord 2003.
Are you seriously in need or you want drive at something ?

Conner44:


I’m seriously in need and I thought their suspension setups are similar or aren’t they? If they aren’t please say so I can bring out the relevant diagram for you to point me in the right direction.

Or better still you can just point out the one I’m supposed to change in the diagram above to be able to rectify the camber issue for a 2003 accord

calculation:


Alright sir, Pls which camber is your, though I'm assuming negative camber. Also clarify if it front or rear because your image is likely for front.
This is to enable me answer you sir.

Conner44:


That diagram is for the rear driver wheel well. Could you try to juxtapose it with the crv version and see if you can recognize the exact one you must have changed?

I’m having a slight negative camber at that side on my vehicle and I don’t want to go and start changing everything out since there’s no noise coming from there at the moment.

calculation:

Those two part ( label 19 and arm below 30) will fix your negative camber. It is either you modify them to adjustable or extend manually to the require length that give zero camber.
