~Z~ still handling well,,,but wanted to ck. the front-
0* toe....not what specs call for,,,again i broke out the tape measurer & ck'd...same width on front & rear of Front tires....toe is 0,,,not - as was in the rear.
i see that specs vary,pending on spec sheet....0.02min 0.05max on one alignment sheet(in degrees) 0.05min 0.12 on another spec sheet (dealership) 0.05min 0.11max on (alldata spec) so definitely calls for positive toe on front.
loosened up adjusters & adjusted tie rod ends 1/6th turn outwards on both sides...now i'm showing about 1/8" front to rear....after test drive...Great! felt as if caster increased-as steering snugged a bit & feels even better at high speed straight line runs.
??? why can't these alignment guys know how to do it properly on a ~Z~ ???
