My 914 goes to the shop next week for alignment: 1.5 to 2 degrees neg camber front, 2 to 2.5 neg rear with 1/16" toe-out front, 1/16" toe-in rear. Tires are Hoosier A3S03's.
I have found a few posts that seem to indicate that when the A-arms and trailing arms are parallel to the ground, you have maximized your cars height. Is this in fact, correct? If so, why is this level preferred? If you go below this height is suspension geometry adversely effected? How much wheel travel is left at this point? Joseph '75 914 2.0L AX bound |
