Re: DIY Eccentric Bolt Install
Some guidance, please?
My front tires are both SEVERELY worn on the INNER side, where the metal cord is starting to show.
I assume this means I have TOO MUCH toe in, is this correct?
So, WHICH WAY DO I WANT TO INSTALL THE BOLTS SO THAT I CORRECT THIS?
I have no way of coherently adjusting alignment, and I need to have the car at least drivable to get it to the alignment shop.
Also, do I need to tell the alignment shop to adjust these?
I understand the original installation was NOT adjustable, so then the techs at the alignment place look at their charts, they will skip over these bolts as being "Non Adjustable" and therefore fixed. I assume their alignment charts will say this, and they will just skip over these, and not align or adjust them in any way.
Are there figures in the manual that give the correct alignment specifications so the tires will run neutral and not wear on one side or the other excessively? How do I convey to the alignment techs that there is now a camber and caster adjustment added to my car?
It's great I'm going to put in the bolts, but THEN WHAT?
I really appreciate your post! It got me started on correcting this problem in the first place.
