you probably broke of inside from arms
so your camber moves now
here is how it works
if you broke of the inside of your arms because you did not use a manual you can trash all of them
not possible to repair
if not, just get yourself a alignment in a garage
2 arms each side have these adjustments
2 sorts of bolts possible
NOTE: the S600 non ABC version unfortunately has the lower suspension mount more outside. that causes more stress on that supporting joint and gets used earlier
you can not use a camber/caster version bolt to ajust that as you will end up with tires in V position
and you also loose a 1 or 2 kg on the suspension
so you front 12kg spring goes to 10-11 but don't worry, it works fine

You are right that’s why I’ Heard knock when I was reverse and braked I thought it’s rooters , going to open them soon
I changed 2 alignment arms and 2 ball joint only i didn’t change control arm only ball joint, and I remember my bolts NON-Camber/Caster Bolt I put them in the middle however didn’t tighten it that much i’m Goona check them

no too bad news
you undertand that if to tighten well, they rotate and destroy the inside keeping the bolt in the middle
you should check all 4 arms make sure the bolt keeps centered
if not you can repair with pieces of pipe like i show in the threat I just updated

in that case tires v position will eat from the side tire I don’t think going to use sway bar mode cuz I’m about to sell car still in good shape 145 km I know going to cry after selling it but I have to do it thank you so much really appreciate it I will check them and update you soon thank you
I have life time warranty on the alignment arms going to contact them they might replace it for me cuz i paid for the warranty do you thing s430 sway bars going to work on cl500 ? Cuz I found one on the scrap yard ?

difference is like day/night
