86 iroc alignment
86 iroc alignment
i have an 86 iroc andjust had it aligned.
i told them -.5 camber both sides
and 5* left and 5.5* right caster
they told me the most caster they could get out of it was 3.2* left and 3.8* right
they did get-.5 camber
does this caster sound right?
i thought 86 irocs came with 5* caster
after they finished the car seems to wander a bit

camber 0.50 +/- 0.50
caster 3 +/- 1
total toe 0.30 +/- 0.20
all in degrees
can you get more? possibly. may need to take the top off and elongate the holes more. but, to answer your question, yes it sounds right. i run an alignment shop and mine is 2.74 left and 3.11 right. your wander might be toe. what is it set at?

If its the steering box, then that can be adjusted correct?
