RE: [MarcosManiacs] '69 V6 - correct toe-in ?

2008-05-10 by larry meadows

Bjorn,

I took the car to have it aligned yesterday, and had a print out of the numbers.

My�toe� is .20 Degrees each wheel (.40 total) (.28 to .55 is the total tol.).

The caster is 4.7 left wheel nd 5.4 right wheel�on my car.�

�My camber is out of spec. I hve to either get new springs or add more shim under the origional springs. 1.8d to 3.8d is the tol.
The tollerance specs�are the same�as the Triumph GT6. All are positive numbers.

Larry

Thanks,

I reduced the toe in today, without measuring it. But; the car was much better to drive immediately.

I’ll make up some measuring planks, and do a better adjustment later on.

Thanks again ;-)

Larry, here,

0 +or- 1/16 "(1.59MM).

This is the factory spec on my '70 3l Volvo powered Marcos.

What would the correct toe-in be for a ʼ69 metal chassis V6 GT`?
