self centring is i diffserent setting altogether, as i understand it. Although it "may" be effected by camber, as will other settings. This guy is not up to speed, imho.

Yes, self centering is more due to toe.

Can I sudgest that you give Tony at wheels in motion a call and discuss with him the issues. He will most likely supply a set of target settings for them to use.

Thank god for that. Had visions of it failing on wishbone bushes next month and having to do the whole thing again.

Im sure Tony will help, hes a good lad. Wim highly recommended. Pop in there if your ever anywhere near Chesham and M40/M25 junction. Good luck with "old speedy".

I have just rang Tony at WIM, what a smashing guy. VERY helpful and gave me loads of advice. Thanks to you other guys on here who have helped and Mark , your figures are bang in line with what Tony says too, Thankyou.

Hopefully I will get this sorted asap. To anybody out there who needs this type of work done I would definatley go to Wheels In Motion.I just wish they were located nearer to me
