Geometry check in NW

[TomB]

I need to get my geometry checked out as visually the LH front appears to have more toe out than RH front! Anyone know of anywhere in Manchester/liverpool/preston areas, or should I just take it to a local ATS/ Kwic Fit?

Tom , speak to Dave Horridge. I reckon he might be your man.

From what you're saying, it doesn't sound like you are talking about tracking (toe out), but camber i.e. when the wheels (viewed from the front of the car) lean in towards the car (negative camber) or out from the car (positive camber).

Kwik fit etc. are ok for checking the tracking - assuming you know what you want them to set it at, but I doubt they can help with castor or camber settings, assuming you know what settings you want.

If you are going to LADS next week, I can impart a little knowledge, or give me a ring. Do you have a build manual? Suggest you start with settings recommended in there. Also suggest you check bump steer if this has not already been attended to - I would have thought it has, as yours is an ex racer isn't it.
