Thank you for your help. We tried to adjust the toe-in, but the wheel camber didn't change. It's a new car and hasn't experienced any severe impacts. Could there be any other issues affecting the wheel camber, such as the shock absorbers or something else?

I saw there is some dragracing in China, would you be thinking about going?
Are you working with a shop with experience for adjusting the alignment of cars?

Hello Linda：
1、I want to keep this 'Last Call' as a collector's item, so I plan to leave it in stock condition.
2、Drag racing in China is still in its early stages and quite niche. It needs more time to develop, so I won't be participating for now. However, there are open track days at the Zhejiang Circuit near me, and I think I might give that a try when I have the chance.
3、In China, the Dodge Challenger Hellcat is extremely rare, which means there are very few specialized repair shops or experienced technicians. I think my best option is to try and find a shop with good wheel alignment equipment to restore the car's original settings.

Hello everyone,
The issue with the rear wheel camber has been identified. The initial wheel alignment was performed with a machine that had not been calibrated, resulting in incorrect measurements. Yesterday, using the Hunter wheel alignment system, the values obtained were left rear: 1.05°, right rear: 1.22°. During the inspection, it was also discovered that the shock absorbers installed are Bilstein B6. This raises suspicion that the vehicle’s original shock absorbers may have been replaced before it entered the Chinese market. Could you confirm whether the original shock absorbers were Mopar components? Thank you!

It appears this one was built for the European market. Unfortunately, the build sheets available on-line, do not list all parts or the parts manufactorer. Best guess, the part number for the oem/factory shocks should be P4529514

Bilstein manufactures high quality parts. I've read that Bilstein manufactured for Dodge and depending on options chosen.
I would guess that they are standard on your "Last Call."
It's too early here for me to get confirmation right now. Usually there will be someone who knows for sure.
They have manufacturing plants in 6 different Countries.
Headquarters Ennepetal Germany, United Kingdom, USA, Romania, Mexico
And in your Country Shanghai China

Correct, the parallel importer claims it's a European market variant, though I'm not certain which specific country it's sourced from. The manufacturing country is listed as Canada. The link you shared has been incredibly helpful—thank you for that! This information fills critical gaps in our documentation.

Hi Linda,
Have a nice day~
- My vehicle is the "Last Call" edition with an engraved "Last Call" badge, manufactured in Canada with a production date of February 2023.
- No worries—during routine maintenance, I noticed some questionable components. For instance, the shock absorbers and exhaust system appear to have been modified with an uncommon aftermarket brand (Grail?), which is causing the engine warning light to stay on persistently. An OBD scan revealed an unresolved valve communication error that can’t be cleared .
Have a nice day~

Grail is another German manufactured system, like the Bilstein parts. Maybe the car owner is from Germany, before it came to you?
