Alignment

Today I brought the car to Performance Wheel Alignment in Bloomington. John, the owner, has owned the shop since 1990 and has been performing this work for over 20 years. He does everything from special interest vehicles like the Cobra, all the way up to large commercial trucks. A lot can be learned from talking with him about suspension geometry and handling and he was definitely the right guy to go to for an alignment. Id recommend him to anyone in the area. We put the caster and camber angles close to the Factory Five specs (caster about 3.5 degrees and camber -.5 degree.).



John at work:


He mentioned the car was so low you can tell if a penny is heads or tails when you go over it.


We're having one small difficulty with the toe-in. We can get the spec where we want, but not with the steering wheel at center position. And the wheel cannot be simply adjusted. John ordered some different inner tie rods and that should do the trick. He'll have them in the next couple of days. We took the car around the block and it drives nice and straight with no abnormalities.
