Wheel alignment

gordysbeetle - March 1st, 2014 at 07:13 PM

It's wheel alignment time for my 68 beetle (IRS). Due to the car being older than the alignment people I am thinking I will need to tell them what to set it at. So what toe in is everyone running ?
Thanks Gordon.

from memory the front is half a degree toe in. Unsure about the rear but seen on Aircooled.net I think a good write up of more performance orientated settings. 2 degrees toe in sounds familiar for the IRS setup.

Take it to a steering specialist, not a tyre seller, as they should know what to do.

Good luck
(you'll need it.)

1mm total toe in at the front, 2mm total toe in at the rear. :tu:

Cheers Col
