Here's a urban myth to run by the group. I actually believe it to be true as I've run into it more than once. They were set-up that way to compensate for LHD on crowned roads. RHD would have the corr

with all the work that goes into a restoration and with the tub off at this time it would be great to get it on to a modern frame machine. The measures are accurate,and you will have peace of mind.Al

I have no idea if this is UM, but I do know that a good alignment person can fine-tune your aligment for your driving style. If thrust angle is within spec, you can tweak the toe to get the car to re

I check the front rotor temps and front bearing temps (measured at the outer edge of the sheet metal hub cap) and the normal range of temperatures is about 350 to 450 for the discs and 150 to 225 on

So as with many a myth, there is some truth. The shim would have been on opposite sides RHD vs. LHD. _______________________________________________ fot@autox.team.net http://www.fot-racing.com Dona
