I have sought advice on this topic before but would just like some confirmation (and I've lost the piece of paper I had it all written on!)
I have been told that front tracking should be about 1/4° toe in. When I visited my local KWIK-FIT and told then I wanted 1/4° toe in they looked at me as if I'd just said "could you paint my toadstools pink please"! - They only deal in mm and didn't understand degrees. I calculated that on a 7'6" wheelbase 1/4° comes out at about 9 - 10 mm, that seems to be a hellova lot compared to most modern cars. Is this right or am I calculating it wrong?
