Witch alignment for a fast road Escos
Hello,
I have fitted new brakes and new wheels to my Escos, Now it's time to get the car aligned correct.
The car is used for fast road (curved roads) driving in the weekends and once in the month for a trip to (and ofcourse ON) the Nordschleife. It's not a daily driver.
The suspention still is original and will stay original for a while. The wheels are 18" and the brakes come from AP.
What camber, caster, toe-in/ toe-out do you advise?
Regards,
Mark

only ajustment on a facotory setup is front toe.
set to toing in 1mm overall (0.5 each side) - as the bushes flex under aceleration they deflect to 0 (assuming they are ok and not fooked) which will give a nice neatral feel thet wont tramline too much - like if you set it at 0 to start with as the deflection when accelerating casues it to toe out and pull when you get on white lines etc
