I have a 2006 forman 500 that the front right wheel is cambered out really bad. Does anyone know if you can adjust it? I looked and can’t find anything

Do you have the service manual? Download it from the folder labeled “service manuals.”

 

Check steering section. Toe in is adjustable but I don’t think camber is adjustable.

Welcome aboard.  More than likely something is bent.  I have a buddy's 06 in my yard now that has a hard pull to the right, and the top of his right front wheel is out compared to the bottom.  He rolled his last year, and I'm pretty sure he tweaked his frame where the a-arms connect to the frame.

That’s kinda what I was thinking too but it’s nothing noticeable 🤷🏻‍♂️ wasn’t like that when I got it. Doesn’t pull just looks bad

Welcome aboard! Got any pictures? The 400ex's im used to working on are well known for being welded in the factory with jigs that werent set up right. Alot of them are noticably cambered from the factory on only one side. Almost all the aftermarket a-arm manufacturers have gone to replaceable upper and lower ball joints that are threaded so they can be adjusted compensate for this.

Unfortunately I don’t have any pictures on my phone right now but I’ll post some when I get home. Sounds like if I want to fix it I need to get some aftermarket A arms

Saying they even make them for that quad. Sport quads have them for when we go long travel for racing. With gncc racing branching out into utility quad racing there is a chance atleast.
