W211 E55 AMG (2004) Alignment Specs ???
Anyone have the W211 E55 Alignment specifications? I have searched high and low, and can not find them.
I just installed rear toe links, and got an alignment, which they said is to factory specification, however if I go wide open throttle, my rear end goes hard right, or hard left. The sheet they gave me says 2004 E55, however right below that it says 210 (no W), but I think they applied W210 settings.
Either way, it is ****ed up. They show +1/8" toe on rear which I assume to mean Toe-Out. That makes sense, as which ever wheel is getting the 550 ft lb or torque is taking me for a ride where I don't want to go.
I think I should have 0 to minimal toe in. I installed the toe links because I was getting a little flex from the stock toe arms (rubber bushings) when running at the strip- which seems very common, and the rational for the toe links in the first place. With my current alignment, the issue is 200 % worse, and I can not safely got wide open at any speed.

2003 E55, previous: E36 M3
Just had an alignment done today on my 2003 E55. The first time they aligned my car two weeks ago it was aligned to a standard W211 with a steel spring suspension. I questioned this and they keyed my VIN number in today and it aligned it for a 03-09 211 (E) AMG.
See the attached scan of my alignment specs. If you can't read the file, send me a PM and I will send you the full sized image.
