Alignment Specs

[Marauder]

I tried searching the site a few times but can't find the alignment specs. I remember seeing them once before but can't find them anymore. Can anyone help? I'm installing new springs hopefully this week and will need to realign the car and want to go with "tweaked" stock specs. I don't trust some places in aligning cause they sometimes do a "general" alignment and don't look up the proper specs.

Thanks All...
Danny

DannyAfter a ton of reading found this:




Caster:

LH = 5.5 degrees +/- .75
RH = 5.5 degrees +/- .75
Total = +/- .75

<FONT color=black><FONT size=2>Camber:<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com /><o:p></o:p></FONT></FONT></P><P style=LH = -0.7 degrees +/- .75<o:p></o:p>
RH = -0.7 degrees +/- .75<o:p></o:p>
Total = +/- .75

<o:p></o:p>
Toe @ curb ride height:<o:p></o:p>
LH ---<o:p></o:p>
RH ---<o:p></o:p>
Total = -0.12 degrees +/- 0.25
(positive value is TOE-IN & negative value is TOE-OUT)

Make sense???? :)

That's the whole thread on those numbers. There's several more, but this iI thought was most informative.

Also, being that you're in Queens, perhaps one of our locals in that area can direct you to a good front end shop. The folks I've met from the greater NYC area are all pretty cool, and knowledgable too.

MartyO recommended a place near my job that did his car and he was happy with the service.

I just wanted to get the exact numbers to give them to realign the car when they're done.

I'd recommend -0.3 deg camber since many folks have extreme inner tread wear.

Okay I kinda see where your going with the Marty pic(Having never seen him I have no personal opinion).

I am not getting the other though. He sees you as a young musical backwoodsman with no eyeballs???
