The steering geometry settings are missing from my manuals
Does anyone have the camber settings for MKIs & MKIIs as I've nearly finished my new front set-up and want to get it somewhere near at least! _________________ 1994 KZJ70 Cruiser (currently filling the garage and causing some head scratching)

Is it worth having a post with all the 'default' settings for the different models of troopies?
For anyone playing around with the front suspension this is very useful info.

Sounds reasonable to me Chris, although I'm not sure many on here mess about with the IFS other than cranking it and knocking the camber out
It is worth having a list of factory settings for your own car because lots of garages don't have all of them or sometimes the correct ones _________________ 1994 KZJ70 Cruiser (currently filling the garage and causing some head scratching)
