I've been having problems with my ball cups compressing into
my turnbuckles resulting in excessive negative camber... The problem is in the front and back... I'm pushing the car but not abusing it... It happens in the parking lot with rubber tires as well as the track with foams...I'm replacing the ball cups regularly... Would Titanium turnbuckls help? I've even tried thread lock, and that doesn't seem to help... I'm going crazy !
Please help...

You may try to put a small washer and jam nut on there to run up against the ball cup. What are you running into?
 
That might not be a bad idea...
My driving skills do need to get better, but this is happening without
a wreck...
 
problem solved...

OK... The problem was the Thread lock...
It was filling up the thread on the turnbuckle creating
a slick surface so the plastic cup ends were sliding freely...
Oh well... Next...
