I have been talking to Ray Scruggs and he sent me his pdf file on how to home wheel align a 914. He said he didnt mind if I posted it up here for us. Which was pretty cool of him I thought. But I don't know how to post it. If you know how, pm me and I will email it to you.

That is a fantastic right up strawman! Thanks for the info. This will compliment Rays pdf when it gets posted tomorrow. I think Im gonna make these and realign my car. what keeps them attached to the car when you move the car to settle the suspension? I suppose as long as your fixture goes into the exact same place with each installment you could just mark the emt where the string should go. that would make re-setting up way faster. any pictures of the rear set up. and one more note, the strings should run in the same plane as the axles. And your fixtures are adjustable for that exact reason. I love it.

QUOTE(mrbubblehead @ Jan 24 2013, 07:50 PM)  what keeps them attached to the car when you move the car to settle the suspension? The design of this essentially wedges it in place, once the strings are tightened. The right-angle elbows pull against the inside of the trunk, while the EMT crossbar pulls against the bumper with tension on the strings. Hope it works for you! |
