suprasport Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 just fitted springs and new wheels took it to be aligned at ATS (good set of lads) said alignment was only out by 1mm so not worth bothering with. but camber as i allready new is a mile out -3 or 4 degrees, but they dont do that told me to use a spirit level and guess, that cant be right surely its more precise than that think it is -1.5 camber, tried moving the cams but they are solid any comments appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeT Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 ATS are a good set of lads and they told you to guess:eek: they havent got a clue what they are talking about. you need a full 4 wheel laser alignment done professionally. say goodbye to your handling and tyres untill its done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 I am about an hour from Donington (East Midlands Airport) and have probably more experience of setting up MKIV suspensions than anyone in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
