Thanks Harvey,IIRC book setting for FWA is 1/8" toe-in + or- 1/16", but it has been said that parallel gives a better outcome.
Camber and Caster should be in the WM, but as they're not really adjustable I can't ever remember looking.
You can adjust them to an extent by shimming the top pivot mounts. Camber by inner or outer mounts being shimmed, caster by shimming both inner and outer mounts.
Awesome! I probably should have looked in the manual more carefully. Seems like my camber is way off, probably weak front springs.My Rover manual for 2200 & 2000
Camber 2200 0.0 degrees +/- 1.0 same on 2000
Caster 2200 0.75 degree positive +/- 0.5. 2000 0.5 positive +/- 0.5
Swivel pin inclination both 8 Degrees
The manuals go to great lengths to get certain measurements very accurate. Top link mounting points isn't one of them. Steering box and damper mountings are.
If you don't see a lot of positive then there probably isn't. I wonder if you can make up a straight edge and try again with the phone going off the wheel rim. Of course the car has to be on level ground.Mine is a 2000TC ex AC car. I bet the shims are still there hence the positive camber. I will double check the measurement though. Looking from the front there doesn’t seem that much positive camber.
That's my problem, I need to borrow garage space with a flat floor. Mine is on a slant and I want to be sure. BTW, I used a plate to check against the wheel for flatness.Of course the car has to be on level ground.
