[s-cars] Alignment specs? - OOOOps

[mike claire]

Bob, here's what Tom Green said in response to this question:


Angelo,

The specs don't change because the car is lowered, so they are:

Front:                                        +5'
total toe (unpressed)   15'
                                                 -10'



               +35'
Camber  (in straight-ahead position)        -50'

               -25
Max. permissible difference between left and right sides   max. 30'

Toe difference angle at 20º lock from left to right     -1º 10'  ±30'

Caster  (not adjustable) without 2B or other strut mounts  +0º 55'  ±40'
Max. permissible difference between left and right sides     max. 1º



Rear


Camber     - 15' ±15'
Max. permissible difference between left and right sides   max. 30'

Toe per wheel ( with specified wheel camber )    +5'  ± 5'

Total toe  (with specified wheel camber   +10'  ± 10'


And, as has been said, you really want the alignment set in the
center of the specifications, and the difference between sides near
zero.  That should not be a problem unless the frame or
suspension parts have been damaged.

Tom
