Some of us have been discussing the 914 rear suspension offline and I measured my toe curve yesterday. I figured I'd share it with the club for discussion.
The axle height scale is in inches and the zero is with the arm level. Attached image(s) |

I did raise the pickups as close to 3" as I could without being anal about it. I'm not actually sure the arms are level now - I was just saying that. I think the axles might be up to 1/2" lower but I would have to measure when I have the car on a good surface. At that point I can take some other measurements as well. One of my next projects may be to incline the pivots to lower the roll center, and move the bearing carrier to restore the static camber. I would be interested in seeing the toe and camber curves for such a change. |
