SaleenGT2001: Does a total toe spec of .32, mean that each side should be exactly .16 each?
Thanks
I just wanted to add to the pool with my .02 experience. I have a similar setup as the OP. MM CC plates, Bilsteins, and Eibach Pros. I used the MM CC guideline for alignment and it did 2 things.
1.) Drastically improved the handeling of my ride around corners.
2.) Wore down the outer edges of my tires in record time.
As for alignment issues, I had mine done by a reputable, local tire center. They had no problem getting it into alignment. But because of the drastic tire wear from an agressive alignment (per MM guidelines) I had them re-adjust it closer to factory spec.
What are the proper factory specs?
SaleenGT2001: Here are the numbers form my last alignment. What problems could an alignment like this cause? Thanks
LF
caster 3.28
camber -1.03
toe .09
RF
caster 4.13
camber -1.13
toe .07
Total toe .16

Wow you hit the nail on the head! My front tires are feathering (wearing unevenly) on the inner edges. What should I do to be sure I get rid of the tire wear when I get it realigned? Get the camber closer to -.5 and the toe closer to .16 each? Thanks
the MM specs are WAY better than the ford specs. the -0.5 camber is just fine for normal driving and will not cuause inner edge wear. i would like to see your printout from that alignment. i would be willing to bet that there was too much negative camber.
MM alignment specs are NOT aggressive. the factory specs are more aggressive than the MM ones
you can do thrust angle alignments... if you have adjustable LCA's... IE: adjustable length not perch height..
Im gonna build some UPR style LCA's... Adjustable length... so ill be doing thrust angle adjustments to make the rear axle square with the car... I guarantee you its not straight
