Hey Sam, I could see your grin from way back here. I told you my settings are good.

Cost is for, Time to loosen everything off, so that it adjusts easily on the laser tracking machine.

Supply and fit 2 adjustable camber bolts.

Then just time on the tracker. Actual tracker cost is £95.00, Camber bolts are £15.00 each. The rest is our labour time to do all the work to get the settings where we like them.

No printout, as the Laser automatically dials in Subaru settings which we ignore. The problem is that these new computerised machines have a screen that goes green when it likes your adjustments within the Subaru tolerance. Our setting are in the red........................ We don't want to print you a red sheet we find it alarms people......

No matter.

Mini Simon who does our tracking and so-on says that you had toe out on the nsr wheel and a decent amount of toe in on the osr So the car was crabbing at the rear. All right for lndy - but bloody useless for much else.

Thanks for the praise, you know where I am when you need me.
