Anybody have alignment specs for 1997 e420?
Went to town fair tire for 4 wheel alignment because of drift to the right. Spec were as follows camber
Lfront -1.3 rfront -.6 degrees
Lf caster 6.0 rf 5.4 degrees
Lf toe .09 rf .08 degrees
Steer ahead 0.0
Lrear camber -1.6 rr -1.5
Lr toe .27 rr .25 degrees
Thrust angle 0.01 degrees
Car still drifts right. Does anybody know the acceptable ranges? According to them its all green. Camber looks pretty off to me, but they said it was slight and they need special bolts to adjust this. Wondering if they have right values, also the fact that it was a sport seemed to make a difference to them, dont know why? Have 90 day waranty on alignment.they will fix it if they were wrong. Ive see several different specs online.

Alignment is way off
Looks like it should pull right based on the alignment specs. its all in the front.
Sport matters because the camber specs are different.
Get the bolt kit from the dealer, its not too expensive. Have them do it right.
I don't have the specs in front of me, but i can tell its not right just by looking at it.
