Toe and camber adjustment who is right please help!!!
Hi Guys
Just got my wheel alignment done at Bob Jane in Joondalup , they said they did the best they could but you cant adjust the toe or camber on my WRX MY02. Rear Axel Individual toe came up at left 0.02 degrees right +0.08 degrees Front Axel Camber Left side +0.27 degrees Right side -0.36 degrees Cross Camber +1.02 degrees The ones in red are the ones that failed and the car pulls to the left, they said something may be bent and take it to Pedders to check it out. I did that and Pedders have booked it in this weekk and tell me you can adjust all of this . I sick of paying money and wasting time waiting for the job to be done only to find I got a print out and told nothing can be done . Please help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Take it to Wheels World in Osbourne park. Pedders are generally a bunch of retards.
It looks like its your rear toe settings that are causing your pull to the left though.

Is this adjustable on stock suspension?
Pedders say they can adjust this and they are close by, my question is , is it adjustable?

Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you need an after market adjustable front control arm to adjust toe in on the rear suspension, something like this? Whiteline

No. The subframe bolts for the rear pair of rear lateral links allow for a small amount of rear toe adjustment.

EDIT: beaten. I'd say MR2 is right, rear toe is way out. I wouldn't be surprised if they couldn't undo one of the rear toe lock nuts, so couldn't be arsed, then tried to BS to you to cover themselves. The rear toe bolts wear on the cams and also and won't allow full adjustment. Either way, they have not been honest for some reason.

Also remember the standard suspension has a fair bit of play in the bushes. so even if you adjust the rear toe, movement on the bushes means that when you drive the car down the road and then back again, it wont be the same as when you set it.
If its pulling to the left. You probably have more toe out on the right side than the left. Its important that the toe settings are even between left and right. You should be aiming for zero toe. Or toe in if you want extra straight line stability.
