In depth 101 - Dynamics of wheel alignment and scrub radius
Gents,
This 1+ hour seminar is really good. It discusses static alignment values vs dynamic conditions when car is moving.
This also discuss when your scrub radius is effected by different ET aftermarket wheel or spacer yada yada.
At the same time rather worn out components not detectable during static alignment but can be "felt" during a drive.
Ackerman Toe Out On Turns also discussed, you guys can see the chapters information.
This Ackerman Toe Out On Turns value is available on our W212 but I never get my alignment shop to read it manually as their Hunter software is not specific to MB and it has to be done manually.
MB WIS call this specification as Check to-out angle (at 20 degrees).pdf I am attaching it.
The video :
Another video on Scrub Radius
For full alignment values W212, go to this post #49 : https://mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w...ml#post8651095
Have fun learning more...............
