steering geometry

[frank rabbets]

Does anyone know the following for 100 4.2 diesel please?

1. Tow in/out
2. Camber angle
3. Caster angle

Is there an argument for setting each side differently according to which side of a cambered road you are driving on.

Thanks
Frank

2005 HDJ. Same for uzj & fzj as well

Thanks uHu

Is "B" the king pin inclination? Also I take it that I should be taking the figures under the "IFS" columns. If so do I need the right hand column or left hand column for UK rhd car.

Thanks a lot.

I presume so. Not my field really.

Yes. Unless you have a 105.

If so do I need the right hand column or left hand column for UK rhd car.

That depends on whether you have AHC or conventional suspension. (put it in your sign.line?)

And it looks like there is no difference btw RHD and LHD. It even mentions that it is the same for Eu and Oz in one place.

Fantastic. I'll get my strings and spirit levels out tomorrow. I can see there is definitely more camber on the nearside than offside. Maybe someone set it up like this on purpose as being rhd but I shall do some more research.

Thanks Again
