The factory cam is an aluminum rivet, not much to work with. Called Dynafit and they don't have screw together cams like BD.

If so, yeah, it's a rivet. One of the cool things about Scarpa is that all fasteners are threaded. I wish other boot companies would take note of that. Sigh.

It is also larger in diameter 25mm vs 22.5mm for the BD cam. I used a mirror to look at inside of the rivet and don't see threads. Can you confirm that the Dynafit cam is a rivet? If so, I can see why you suggest shimming the cuff. John Lou,

Instead, consider canting the cuff by just adding some material to one side of the liner cuff or the other. I’ve done it, but don’t recommend it as it’s really tough to find the correct cam/rivet.

I have done this to 3 pairs of BD Factors, but the construction of the Dynafit cam is not so obvious. The BD cant is made up of 3 parts, a T nut, cam screw, and ring. I can't see how the Dynafit cam is constructed. Thanks, John Does any one know how to add a cant cam to the inside side cuff of Dynafit boots?
