[rad cap]

fitted a new tre for mot, what is the setting for the tracking, in/out ?.

[Marks DTM Calib]

Seem to recall its slightly in.....

.....where had it worn, on the very inner edge, if it has then its camber....not tracking.

[rad cap]

no wear at all, i fitted a new track rod end for mot, put new one on as close as poss but want to check the track, my self and not sum muppet at fick kwick, or garage, i have acces to guages but no settings, thanks

[Marks DTM Calib]

Got some good values at work, will post them tomorrow.

[rad cap]

ok that would be great,

[Marks DTM Calib]

Its worth checking the rear settings as well.

BOL says 0^o10

[rad cap]

is that in or out.  will check front and rear if i get settings thanks

Hmmm....not sure on those, my thinking is toe in because when moving forward the tyre friction will tend to move them towards toward the zero point and you still want a little toe to keep stability....suppose that could be toe out..

I was always told that rwd toe in, fwd toe out (or was it other way round?)

Which would be correct, but the Haynes toe value is bugger all!

i would suspect tow in myself, as its rear wheel drive, but setting would be good if you can get them.

esp giving the +-10 tolerance!

Theres a blast from the past - my brother did the redesign for that to make it road legal (the original Ford design wasn't road legal), and a heap of work on the 4 wheel drive system used.
